Sojourner

A lonely wanderer along these facets, crystalline sojourner treading the edge of a sapphire, celestial jewel of eternity.
Forces tear in unholy frenzy. My cloak whips in this wind across the endless gulf. Each weary step upon this smooth surface takes my husk further out, further beyond the touch of humanity, of civilization, beyond the velvet kiss of your voice.
The only voices upon me are the tongues of space and time, meaningless concepts crushed and shattered, scattered across the void. My journey commences.
My journey continues. Alone.

Unquiet Passing

The unquiet passing of the year is seasoned in dead hues, the tones of rot and finality. The brittle leaves, like pale shards of glass, whisper through wooded vales, through empty forgotten fields, to hold a somber court. In wild and forgotten corners, in the shoulders of old roots, in the mud, the frame of reflection.
It speaks in notes, its voice the ether, a thick shroud of grey. Fractured by the spreading fingers of darkened naked boughs, emptied of leaves, emptied of me. It speaks in the cries of distant geese, they sing a wild lament, offering an echoing requiem for the end of all.

Söngvar elds og óreiðu

There's not a thing about this release that I don't like. Good black metal band and proud to own it.

Spin-offs were made of this project for a reason. Very few metal musicians are able to put a sound to something that is distinctly Eastern Orthodox. And it should be worth noting that despite how long it's been since this band was stolen, the version that's been touring North America is the stolen Batushka, not the original.

Umbras de Barbagia
by Downfall of Nur
supported by 28 fans who also own “Demo EP”
After listening to Ysyry Mollvün, listening to Downfall of Nur was urgent and turned out to be one of the best decisions I have made in quite some time: Umbras de Barbagia is simply magisterial; the atmosphere can hardly be compared to anything else. There is a deep, palpable connection to nature imbueing each very fibre of this record. The amalgamation of black metal and folk elements is done with a high intuition for detail and class, resulting in a highly immersive experience. Wonderful.

.- -... ... . -. -.-. .
by Mesarthim
supported by 28 fans who also own “Demo EP”
Les deux explorateurs de Mesarthim ouvrent la voie et étendent notre horizon à chacun de leurs albums et .--... ... . -. -.-. . pousse encore plus loin cette contemplation de l'univers. Si le synthé est toujours aussi prépondérant (marque de fabrique du groupe), il sert à créer désormais une ambiance assez sombre, voire funéraire (l'orgue superbe à la fin de "...--") sur le premier tiers de l'album puis plus aérienne et galactique sur les deux tiers restants. Ce disque est un trésor absolu.
