Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Irish ensemble continued their evolution away from traditional black metal, fully embracing an epic, highly emotive fusion of extreme music and Celtic heritage. A.A. Nemtheanga's incredibly passionate, mostly clean vocal delivery elevates the sprawling, melancholic song structures that heavily focus on themes of cultural history and tragedy.
