From the plaintive guitar arpeggios that open the track to the pummeling Swans-eque churn of the song's climax, 'The First Cause' builds and builds into something truly awe-inspiring, with Jonas Munk's production lending a sense of expansiveness and yearning to the ferocity of the band's instrumental attack.
