Their best-reviewed album to date is Eschaton Mémoire (2017) [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] which Spyros Stasis of PopMatters says, "It might have taken a while for Chaos Moon to reach this state, a surprising result considering how potent and promising the two early records of the band were. From these diamonds in the rough, Chaos Moon has further explored its sound, and with Eschaton Memoire Poole and company have reached the summit." [13]
