Hooray!

The first one was great, I am looking forward to getting this!

Though I am a little concerned about your comments regarding the production.. it it rawer than Autumn Aurora?

Yes, way rawer, but it's not some uber UG garage sound. It's the kind of rawness that suits this kinda manifestation. It's nice to see that Drudkh thought about the best suiting production for this release, this is in my opinion the most straight forward Drudkh release (in that slavonic paganBM way).

Very good release, but not quite as good as Autumn Aurora was IMO. Nice job Daniel.

Hell yeah, rawer and more refreshing! Although I'm not sure yet which of the two I prefer! Good job Daniel!

Ow forgive about not posting the 2 promised reviews for this week (Skar and Val, you are the victims). It got later than expected @ uni, and when I came back the reviews were already up. Don't worry though, you'll have 4 reviews for next week then! :D

There is one thing that many of these reviews lack seriously. They say how great these bands are. But, do not really give us an idea what the music sounds like. There is no mention of Keyboards and to what effect they are used. Also, there are no mention of the vocals and how they sound like.

Me, I like my black metal without keyboards, or minimal usage. Also, I like black metal vocals that are more harsh than shrieking (ie: Immortal). Thus, I have no idea what type of black metal this is. Can anyone enlighten me. Thanks,

Guess what?

Harsh non shrieking vocals and minmimum/non use of keyboards here!

Anyway, in my last review of Drudkh I explain more about their sound, I was thinking that maybe someone read it before or made click on the lower part of the screen to read it and get more details.

My bad anyway....

Indeed, I must insist that all of you guys ivest st least a little on actually buying the albums. Don't be cunts and support the BM underground. I understand you dload some stuff, but you need to buy to.

Support the BM underground, buy albums (not bootlegs or from the EBay whores)!!!

actually, I ordered the Noenum ep...

but the point in downloading is to make sure the album kicks ass since many of ours have tiny budgets (including you as you're a student)...

I bought too many album that have finished covered up in dust from not listening to it... I don't want that anymore and then downloading provides me with all the informations I need to buy what is exactly my taste.... :D

Downloading for that is 100% acceptable.... what I meant was all those leaches that only dload and use their money for other things that aren't available free.
