Review: With titles like Herfsttijd (‘autumn time’), De vlucht van de trekvogels (‘the flight of the migrating birds’), Tussen de vallende bladeren (‘among the falling leafs’), I really expected an hour of acoustics-only boredom (or perhaps a National Geographic documentary). But the black metal that’s offered sounds pleasing, melodic, with every instrument utilising its role in the compositions. There’s even something that can be considered a bass guitar solo in Herfsttijd... Sure there are lots of acoustic interludes and intro’s, but there’s still plenty of black metal that evokes feelings of old Ulver and Empyrium releases. The acoustics are played very well, which is a big plus. This leaves us with 55 minutes of moody music that is a safe purchase (if you’re not only into extreme and brutal stuff).
