Album Reviews
With this classic approach of their musical enchantment, Escumergamënt presents the forgotten ideals of European black metal.
Mork’s latest release ‘Katedralen’ brings black metal rooted in the old school template of raw black metal with still their own touches.
Sarkrista continues to expand on the melodic landscape, without sacrificing the main elements of the music.
Valdaudr reflects on the elements of the early nineties black metal. There are no keyboards just the old clichés delivered in the Scandinavian style.
Where darkness and light become unified to perpetual ends, behold the first part of the trilogy of the Swiss masters Aara.
If the music of Drudkh defines the dark and atmospheric melancholic style of black metal then Hate of Forest is exactly the opposite.
Inflabitan ensures some kind of stability between raw black metal, death metal, and thrash metal on his debut full-length.
And now, for something a little freakier, here’s RVBBER VVITCH’s ‘Mastvrbations Malveillantes MMXVII’.
After 3 years EINHERJER returns with ‘North Star’. A great addition to their already 25 year long existing discography.
Mastermind Vindsval has proven that he still can wield his magic seasonally or occasionally!! Prepare to immerse yourself in the sonic wintery landscapes of Forhist.
