 Counter-Attack: Lutyens' Cenotaph: Inscribing the FWW onto London's Political Landscape by Michele Fry
The word 'cenotaph' literally means 'empty tomb' in Greek, and Lutyens' design of it is based on the Greek principle of entasis, in which curved surfaces create the illusion of linearity.

 Cenotaph - Death Metal
Review: Cenotaph have developed brilliantly a national sound for Mexico in a pungent mix of the heavier, guttural, chugging, syncopated American sounds that bonds guitar bash to drum abuse under the aegis of a barfing vocal style noone can comprehend, infused with homegrown technique and a tendency toward melodic songwriting like a European band.
The murky malevolence of this music is unchecked by a need for demonstration and instead it plows forward with unwrapping layers of texture which suggest more than a superstitious prediction of boundary, this music suggests a position of setting and a nihilistic journey of observation.
The shuddering roar that is their aesthetic comes from both the aggressive gore metal bands farther north and the rhythmic cannibals of the south declaring a self-destructive necrotic hopelessness.

Keeping in line with what seems to be a more and more noticeable move by Pittsburgh's Cenotaph imprint towards a folkier aesthetic, Glasgow's Scatter may not make for as difficult listening as some of the label's other artists, but their souped-up take on folk melodies and jazz rhythms are far from pedestrian.
Surprising Sing Stupendous Love, their debut release, might be Cenotaph's best release yet.
The group, whose membership totals nine on this release, have strong ties to both American and European folk music, as well as jazz, but their music is of a sound all its own.
