iceveiled Interesting avant-garde adjacent black metal. I love the lyrical themes, the bass guitar and the unique screams. Adding this to the "stuff to listen to in October" playlist. More please! Favorite track: The Knocking.

Umbra Cornuta What a hooking and unique formula! Invigorating black metal, with a flawless production and occult, folkloric vibes. It's groovy, eccentric and absolutely mesmerizing. The wicked vocals are mixed in so well with great instrumentals. Knocked down by this! Favorite track: The Visitor.

Iván Delgado Haunting black metal as I have not heard in a long time... The bass is fucking awesome. The growls are creepy in a weird awesome way too! Loved it!... though it was a bit unncany.. Favorite track: The Knocking.

The Knocking 07:34
In a humble cottage bedroom In a remote obscure hamlet Judges, jurors, rustics A witness invisible Unknown being, otherworldly citizen Unknown to us, a trick of light? “Are you a man who knocks At the doorways of the earth? Are you a spirit Of air or mud or salt?” Break through the dark Seal of Death Reveal long hidden mysteries Which silence Could longer hide away Behind this door, another doorway Speak the forbidden words That fashion a key Startling reality snaps Like a rope of sand Shadowy portals enclose In unfathomed mysteries There are no dead…

The Visitor 09:12
He spoke: “Obsidian, Spectral vein array’d Leas’d with dark ghosts That wander thro’ the shade I am the knocking That breaks apart thy soul I am the spirit Of mud and salt and bone Abductor, captor Of stones unknown to man Resplendent being With jewels press’d out of sand Cousin Jacks That wander to my door Saffron cake’s the key To the door beneath the floor Onyx the color of their eyes Where naught but the deathless lies”
