Album Notes & Community Reviews

The English atmospheric black metal stalwarts return with an intensely triumphant, heavily pagan-inspired epic. Grounded by relentless, galloping blast beats and fiercely melodic, tremolo-picked guitar lines, the record projects a freezing, distinctly Northern European atmosphere. It operates as a proudly majestic, beautifully melancholic highlight of modern underground extreme metal.
