2022 is still young, but it's already seen the release of a nice grip of great black metal records, and Der Turm is one of my favorites of that crop. Following an excellent demo, it's the first album from this German trio, and it's a near-perfect piece of epic atmospheric black metal, somewhere in the same windswept, blast-heavy vein as Paysage d'Hiver, complete with excursions into the desolate lands of dungeon synth and neofolk.

ReplyDeleteI will say: Forlorn Aspect and total devastated by new Deathspell Omega
ReplyDeleteGood selection for 2022! That Dracvlea Noctis has a Sergio Leone soundtrack twang to it.
ReplyDeleteAlso the Silent Thunder (Lamp of Murmuur) latest demo is good raw black metal.
