Despite this seemingly significant change, the Sargeist aesthetic remains resolute and unyielding - indeed, they are more Unbound than ever. Grimy yet spectral, icily melodic but burning with a desperation beyond compare, songwriting that cuts to the heart of the purest black metal but reverentially receives it blood: the Sargeist of Unbound are a band renewed and revitalized, prepared to keep the throne they've occupied these many years through a subtle yet studied refinement.
Returning from their Icy sojourn, SARGEIST delivers the next Pinnacle of Grim Black-Metal De-evolution. "Catastrophic yet catatonic, "Disciple of....." surges forward like a blackened bayonet while clutching you in tones of merciless, iniquity. Excellent, putrid black metal.
Rostorchester has never had such a fat and rich sound and we thank our boyish mixer for taking the time to turn the boozy mess raw recordings into one of the best Rostorchester productions ever.
