The Black Flux

Formed from the ashes of the legendary avant-garde black metal band Ved Buens Ende, Carl-Michael Eide's project fully abandons extreme metal for highly dissonant, surreal experimental rock. The album utilizes bizarre, angular guitar chords, driving post-punk rhythms, and eerie, baritone crooning to create an intensely paranoid, nocturnal atmosphere. It is widely regarded as a wildly inventive, deeply unsettling masterpiece of modern avant-metal.
