Cosmicism 85/100
Atmospheric, depressive, also very heavy. Mar 1, 2022
Cosmicism 85/100
Overall good album. It was a nice surprise when there was a groovy banging old school metal part for some variety. Feb 28, 2022
Cosmicism 90/100
This is listed as pagan black metal by BMP. Usually I don't like pagan, but this time I loved it, so I'm glad I gave it a try. I was really bopping. Feb 28, 2022
Cosmicism 95/100
The opening medieval symphonic part is beautiful, and the rest of the album heavy and banging. Another highlight is some screams of panic and agony. Definitely one of his best. Feb 28, 2022

Very atmospheric, and high quality like usual for the French veterans. Feb 24, 2022

Whoa. Listen to this if you like being terrified. Feb 24, 2022

Wow, the arrangements feel very lush. There're some synthy sounds or keyboards in there, but with this album the atmospheric element doesn't contrast with the black metal. Instead it blends. Everything is to great effect. Feb 22, 2022

High quality straight up black metal, and their drummer is tops. Feb 22, 2022
Cosmicism 75/100
Pretty solid. I like what I hear but don't love it. Feb 22, 2022
Cosmicism 85/100
Noice! This one is a mostly slow, creepy, and disturbing work. It's about focusing on the guitar textures and distortions and then breaking into clean instruments here and there. Feb 21, 2022

A beautiful album by Basarabian Hills that sounds exactly like the title says it does. Feb 21, 2022
Cosmicism 80/100
Kortirion started off with a good album here, and I really appreciate having good instrumental albums like his. The opening voice-over is pure gold. Feb 21, 2022
Cosmicism 90/100
This is a magical album that will change your mood. The metal element is so diminished that it's creepy how it's just barely there. Memorable album! Feb 21, 2022
Cosmicism 85/100
I was pleasantly surprised. It's busy and thundering and has a euphoric feel to it. A lot of post rock and post metal get too loose and lose their musicality with hesitation, but this album is the opposite. If you like instrumental, and atmospheric, and post, then definitely give this album a try. Feb 21, 2022

Menacing and densely layered like the teeth of a great white. Feb 20, 2022

I liked Pure Wrath before, but this album is a total gem. A shoe-in for my top albums of the year. It's just breathtaking. This one is inspired by the suffering from Indonesia's genocide, and you can hear the sincerity in the songwriting and vocals. Feb 19, 2022

Kind of departing stylishtically from their other albums. This one's harsher and harder. I don't love it as much as their others, but it's all well played by these pros. If you lean toward harsher, start with this one. Feb 19, 2022

Their first full-length, but good and professional-sounding. What impressed me is how good of a cinematic feel they achieved. It sounds like it belongs as a score to a major film. Feb 19, 2022

Good but not great in my opinion. Feb 17, 2022
Cosmicism 85/100
I really enjoy the thoughtful compositions, and it gets nice and spooky here and there, as well as melancholic. It doesn't have many very heavy parts, so if that's a must for you, you might not like it. Feb 17, 2022
Cosmicism 95/100
I'm so glad I've finally heard this album. What I hear is atmospheric black metal with a little post black metal phasing in for some minutes in the middle of the album. The Indian influence lends a very rich sound, and the whole thing rocks like nobody's business. Feb 16, 2022

Such an adventure to listen to this. These are Lovecraft's poems made into black metal. The album has incredible cheery vibes combined with cold dangerous blackened tones. It just makes me so happy. Feb 16, 2022
Cosmicism 90/100
Awesome album. The literary excerpts have enough music between them to make them feel welcome so you can realize how interesting they are. The tunes get nice and hypnotic and it sounds uber practiced and in the zone. Really interested in hearing more from these guys now. Feb 16, 2022
Cosmicism 80/100
Not the best of Moongates Guardian's, but definitely good and fun. Also, it gave me a pronounced case of the cozies..... Feb 16, 2022
Cosmicism 85/100
Very good album with some cool spoken word to contrast with the harsh vocals. The Russian accent makes it even better for some reason for me. Feb 16, 2022

Harlequin 90/100
신화 속 폭력적인 이면에 대한 감정적 해석의 전달. 에픽한 소재들을 다루면서도 그것에 매몰되어 주객이 전도되지 않게끔 느낌과 표현에 철저히 집중한 듯하며, 그런 면모가 감정적이되 냉철하게 와닿는다. Oct 31, 2024

어쿠스틱 기타, 첼로, 플루트 등을 이용하여 녹음한 어쿠스틱 사운드의 작품이다. 그러나 표현하고자 하는 사운드의 방향성 자체는 무겁고 진지하다. 멜로디가 약간 서늘한 냉기를 품고 있다. 더운 여름에 들으면 시원함을 느낄 수도 있지만 대체로 가을의 분위기에 잘 어울린다. 커버아트와 음악의 매칭이 절묘하다. Nov 4, 2024

Their most representative album of the eighties, full of innovation and class, with forceful themes and a benchmark in style for the hard rock genre, in fact it is their best-selling work to date! My personal precise rating is (94/100) Faves: Criyng In The Rain and Don´t Turn Away! Oct 30, 2024

완벽하다. 지금와서 painkiller 정도의 힘을 기대하는 것은 무리지만 관록과 경험으로 영그러진 놀라운 앨범을 냈다. 엔지니어링도 크게 한몫했다. Oct 31, 2024

The album finds Blood Incantation returning to their death metal roots with renewed psychedelic vigour, eager to tear apart familiar metallic ideas Nov 6, 2024
