In stock on Metallic Media: MOLOCH Verwüstung CD New album from the Ukraine Black Metal / Dark Ambient act Moloch. The album includes two types of music, reflecting what I gather are Fjordsson’s two divergent musical passions. The first and last tracks are wordless dark ambient pieces. They are markedly different from the six songs that come between them, but they don’t feel tacked on. They feel more like steps in a ritual, with “Todesstille” preparation for what is to come - the emotionally harrowing storm of black metal. The cumulative effect of these songs is both electrifying and exhausting. It’s almost a relief when “Verwüstung” arrives... I’m kind of dumbfounded that something this good is just one more surge in what seems to be a ceaseless flood of creativity from this band. (No Clean Singing). store.coldspring.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=4691 URUK-HAI The Fellowship CD Epic Battle Ambient / Pagan Metal from Austria. Evocative silhouettes, colours and imagery combine to thrust you deep into the heart of Tolkiens realm, with the original literary Fellowship depicted on the cover booklet and led by that wily old fox Gandalf... The music on this album is the perfect cinematic accompaniment to such a journey. The gentle strings and piano in certain songs bring to mind the countryside of this realm, as if you were looking down on majestic forests crisscrossed crystal-clear babbling brooks, teeming with fish and cavorting Hobbits. Other tracks are bombastic and dramatic, and would be the perfect soundtrack to watching battalions of Elven cavalry in gleaming armour sweeping across windy ridge tops. (Honour And Darkness).
