An ode to the old frozen cold bm of the 90s. Synth hypnotizing, riffs pulverize and the vocals are perfect. Released in April but I'm happy I found it on mourner's collection in November. afcturn_
There are several black metal acts I enjoy, but these guys (which I did enjoy quite a bit) are the first I would add the word cool to the description. warchrist30
On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs... Nocturnal Egg (Jordan)

Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 8, 2023
An outstanding slab of atmospheric black metal, “Sisyphus” cannily blends texture and terror for a gripping final product. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 7, 2021
To find this level of musicianship and solid artistic direction in the raw black metal genre is inevitably going to result in a special album. Trha is the most exciting band I've discovered in the last ten years. RootsThunder
