WATAIN

Release Year: 2022
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: magical harmonious infernal black metal

this latest ten track offer from the devilish fortress sounds like a save option that will certainly please the die-hard fans of nowadays black metal, but on the other hand it sounds like essential Watain you might expect what appears as a logical move after an on-purpose-harsh previous longplay that appeared a bit forced - it is surprising to learn all compositions were recorded live in [Necromorbus] studio, proving a stellar performance and dedication to the traditional ways of handling the metal music, highlighting the interplay between guitar harmonies and menacing vocal expression, where crystal clear sound lets the listener immediately catch subtle harmonies laid down in these lush yet dangerous tracks aplenty; first press German three panel digipak edition comes with an embossed logo on cover and twenty page booklet
