Árstíðir lífsins make some of the best pagan black metal this side of Helrunar, with whom they share a couple of members. Powerful, epic odes to (one imagines) the natural world. Clean and growled vocals, some viola, cello, and piano, and a grand, sorrowful sound.
Track listing:
1. Ísa brots blómin milli hnignunar marnars barna
2. Morgunn í grárri vindhjálmars þoku við berufjörð
3. Velkomin í lífið, ávarpar maðr sjálfan sig
4. Haka kleifir berja ok brjóta við enda langrar ferðar sinnar
5. Lifðu með öðrum, með þínum eigin
6. Eigi hefr á augu, unnskíðs komit síðan
7. Margt breytist fyrir orð völvanna
8. Við fundum nýtt heimili, langt burtu í vestrinu
9. Þat er stormr ok bláköld vatnssmíðin litar regna borg
I can see you
Everything about this release sounds (umm your description that is, d/l it now..) and looks very worthwhile - as always thank you D_S!!!
