French raw DSBM. ..Whirlwind is a great example of how production can absolutely make or break a black metal record. It's compositionally minimal, often to an extreme -- there are songs made up entirely of cycling back and forth between a pair of two-chord 'riffs' -- and with big, polished production, they'd probably drag. And yet, the warm, distorted, analogue wall of sound makes it feel like it's the end of the fucking world. When it first hit, it honestly reminded me of the first time I heard "Only Shallow" -- not so much in sound but pure, visceral impact.
Perhaps most importantly, though: you can just feel how real it is. No one makes a track like "Glacial Décadence des Lamentations." unless they're really going through it.
