New two-track demo ep, from Order member Grief, and his one-man black metal band Nyctophilia. Twelve minutes of majestic, perfectly poised symphonic black metal, with impeccable production on every instrument; from the old-school boxy drum sound to the ancient ethereal synths, and layers of guitar that build up the landscapes of this primal nature-influenced project.
For a long time Ive wanted to get around to writing on Hunger Of Elements by Kataxu, the one man band from Poland. That record is one of a rare few that walks gracefully in the shadow of Emperor's symphonic majesty, conjuring epics to hold a candle to classic In The Nightside Eclipse. So imagine my excitement and surprise, suddenly after sixteen years of silence, Kataxu returns! Structured with another six tracks, three lengthy metallic tracks either side of three astral symphonic interludes, it seemingly had all the markings of that album I've adored since my youth. Sadly, Ancestral Mysteries doesn't hold up to expectations. With that in mind, maybe I lost the ability to enjoy this for what it is? On closer inspection however, It does seem like the showering of magic its predecessor offered is nowhere to be heard.
Second album of high level keyboard driven Polish black metal. Originally released back in 2005, this 2021 digipak edition features new cover art.
Hailing from Finland - Ancient Obscurity has just recorded debut album which brings nearly 40 minutes of pure Nordic Black Metal. Excellent mix of melody, agression and cold atmosphere.
Polish one-man project - Nyctophilia is back with 6th full-lenght album. Grief has recorded another great opus. Atmospheric Black Metal full of sadness and misanthrophy with very dark ambience. Very strong position among this year’s releases.

For many centuries we are ruled by empires. By one, then another. Encouraging / forcing to commit terrible deeds. Time - is a plague for every empire. Plague - is a medicine. Don't let the plague inside you to fade away.
“Great atmospheric black metal often evokes some element of nature: trees, lakes, mountains, etc. This album from Germany’s Schattenfall immediately conjures images of epic thunderstorms, followed by a seemingly endless torrent of rain cleansing the landscape of the listener’s mind. You can tell a lot of thought went into making the record into a cohesive experience, from the title (which translates simply into “Shadow in Black”) to the album art. In a world of now very tired atmospheric black metal tropes, Schattenfall is the great flood that resets the world.
