Style: mystic atmospheric pagan black metal

this fundamental, epic recording can be firmly included in the heritage canon, applying both to the chronicle of Utena region and to development of pagan black metal, without geographical limitations, as Poccolus unquestionably entered history in a broader context, inspiring musicians in many countries: the undisputed classic of mystical, atmospheric sound found on this cult debut and only album [1996] captivates with a deep, immersive mood, Munius' piercing, untamed vocals, and fiery, uplifting energy, drawing on signature elements from the depths of the ages, embodied in rough and provocative yet magnetically compelling, melancholy-filled and spiritually resonant music that no other Lithuanian band has ever managed to approach; recent jewel case edition with authentic cover artwork is limited to 300 units only
