Svart - Förlorad (2010)


Related:

A deep, echoing pit of droning, patience-testing DSBM/blackened doom. Heavy, harsh, and hopeless, but brightened by some at times quite pretty, borderline post-rock-sounding guitars. Förlorad could be likened to the Flood of DSBM, in that it has a number of sections that go on waaay longer than they 'should' yet it's absolutely crucial to the overall impact of the payoffs, and the album as a conceptual piece, that they go on as long as they do.

Track listing:
1. Förlorad I
2. Förlorad II
3. Förlorad III


More sunshine, good times, and fine wine:

  1. You had me at “patience-testing”!

  2. Every bit as mesmerizing as your description, from a subgenre that otherwise rarely reaches me. Is this what the cognoscenti are calling Post-Black Metal these days? If so, it fits, and I'm into it.
