German atmospheric black metallers Waldgeflüster have decided to release an EP that contains one new song, two covers and a re-recorded song from their early discography. I absolutely loved this bands last album ‘Dahoam’ released in 2021 which I reviewed… Continue Reading →
Hailing from Chile this atmospheric black metal band is solely the brainchild of Sergio González Catalán assisted by Emidio Alexandre on drums for this excellent sophomore album that immerses you in a world of scintillating melodies, bleakness and a sense… Continue Reading →
