Re-issue, revisited layout, Digipack edition. One can say that nearly everything is already said, written and recorded at least once, when it comes to Black Metal. But still you can differ between Bands who are into it, because it fits their musical tastes and those who are truly driven by most sinister urges.
A mid-90s masterpiece, this is Dimmu Borgir and symphonic/classically inspired black metal before it became polished, an archaic and atmospheric work with heavy use of piano and calming passages contrasting with aggressive and epic metal aggression. A somber and immersive album that is arguably far more timeless than the later rerecorded/rewritten Stormblåst 2005 recorded a decade later.
CHOTZÄ's ''Pächschwarz'' ist ein roher und ungefilterter Tauchgang in die Wildheit des traditionellen Black Metal, präsentiert mit einem einzigartigen Schweizer Touch.
Arguably their most immediate and organic recording to date, Die Falle reaffirms BERGRIZEN as masters of autumnal black metal melancholy: magick, mysticism, splendor, and strife are all write large across the album.
