Beyond The Palest Star
by VORGA
supported by 31 fans who also own “Winter Assault”
"Ce n'est pas le voyage qui compte mais la destination" est une locution proverbiale qu'on entend de la bouche de tous les nomades : ce n'est pas la pochette de Beyond The Palest Star qui le démentira puisqu'Adam Burke reprend la technique du point de fuite, dirigeant notre regard non pas vers une station spatiale mais vers un trou noir — situé sur la gauche. Vorga confirme ce chemin de pensée dans son deuxième album avec un death metal cosmique sinistre, infusé d'énergie doomesque. Colossal !

Striving Toward Oblivion
by VORGA
supported by 26 fans who also own “Winter Assault”
Here's to some more cosmic metal, the Karlsruhe based outfit offers crude yet extremely well produced sound in this earlier effort. Featuring mid-tempo cadences, occasional blast beating, high pitched shrieking essentially, the riffing has this mildly meaty, sensational over-atmospheric tilt that's always well received on my part. The perspective of getting sucked into a wormhole had never felt better I kid you not. Emperor and Inherits the Void in mind, you just can't skip this one.

Well, after listening to Death and Black Metal for over 35 years, it sometimes gets boring, even if bands try to innovate. But then you stumble upon an album, which immediately clicks: it fresh, but familiar. It’s emotional, intelligent and complex, but not for complexities’ sake. It flows, it works, it’s authentic. This album is absolutely great, it’s all I want from this kind of music: cold soundscapes, raging fires, the embrace of darkness. 10/10

Seething, stomping death metal from these Norwegian titans on an album that’s beastly and full of fire.

Blackbraid is a spiritual force in the black metal scene, bringing a unique perspective and culture that was missing until the release of this album. 'Barefoot Ghost Dance on Bloodsoaked Soil' is immensely powerful, showing me that black metal is as strong as ever. 'The River of Time Flows Through Me' is excellent as well, with a crushing melody and unforgettable song title. Hail Sgah'gahsowáh, the new blood of black metal.
