Animus - Poems for the Aching, Swords for the Infuriated (2005)


Israeli depressive black metal. A beautiful haze of guitars drifting over minimal drum loops, with harsh, distorted, rasping vocals to ugly it all up. A solo project, Animus had a deceptively unique take on black metal, and I really wish he'd made more than two albums.

Six tracks, titled "I" through "VI"

    1. I used to but I must have deleted it. Remember thinking it was a huge letdown.
