Artist Origin: NED
Style: intense dramatic symphonic black metal
each visit to Carach Angren fortress equals entering the realm of horror novel, just delivered via catchy and dramatic sonic expression: much sharpened sound of the fourth longplay never falls short on haunting orchestral madness, juxtaposed to buzzing black metal tone you would expect from a band concerned about the genre's origins, while sinister, raspy vocal trademark by Seregor and mercilessly rattling drum whip by Namtar make sure these nine devilish nightmares will put a spell on you for a long time to come; limited deluxe clam box edition includes digipak version of the album with orchestral version of Dreaming of a Nightmare in Eden as bonus, and engraved ouija planchette with leather necklace in velvet pouch, it is limited to 4500 units
