NAV – Necrotic Voices From The Æther
One thing that really drew me in was the crunchy guitar riffs mixed with an underlying synth at times, and it makes it more dimensional, which adds to overall experience.
Vesperian Sorrow – Regenesis Creation MMXIX
This album is dark imagination writ large.
Inexorum – Moonlit Navigation
I’m going to go ahead and say it from the get go. This album is fantastic.
Morto – Subsistencia Pesimista, Explorando el concepto del vacío
Sedate drumming, melancholy and often repetitive riffing, simple chord structures are all beautifully done, and all help the purpose of the album, which is to highlight the raw pain of the vocals.
Imperial Triumphant – Alphaville
I think the payoff for letting a difficult album have the time necessary to gel with you is often worth it.
Flux Amuck – The Alternate
It’s like water skiing behind a speedboat down I-94 into Detroit. Strange, almost unfathomable, but undoubtedly a good time.
Kaliya – Born to See, Bred to Hate, Led to Destroy
On this release, Kaliya can run you down with speed, rumble over you with power, and often does both simultaneously. Behold the brutal velocity!
THEY LEAPT FROM BURNING WINDOWS – Demo 2020
…a melodic/raw black metal duo from Anchorage, and I believe their setting is extremely important to how their music seems so effortless, when talking about how coldness and organic nature of their sound.
NEW SINGLE: Forêt Endormie – Nuages orageux
“Nuages orageux” examines that moment when the clouds have gathered and we welcome the coming storm.
EXCLUSIVE TRACK STREAM: Höstblod – Tusen ögon
What will be unexpected is the utter anguished beauty of Dikter om döden.
