Keres Melanos Thanatoio

by Antecantamentum

supported by

SouthernWolf This is an astounding composition, profoundly moving and a revelatory experience all the way through. This is the embodiment of the sort of power black metal is capable of, harnessed to create music of pain, sorrow, wonder, beauty, strength, and catharsis.

Oddish Is Dumb Endlessly beautiful, I get chills every time I listen

Damp Chill of Life
by NONE

supported by 19 fans who also own “Keres Melanos Thanatoio”

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable... Jordan Vauvert
