Completely unique and original low-fi black metal with a soft, nostalgic and romantic atmosphere - straight out of early Burzum's playbook. porcelainheart-
What an album! Riff piles on riff to unleash blistering madness. This is supposed to be a one-man project? I am deeply impressed. I praise the internet every day because it makes it possible to identify gems like this all over the world. E_H

I had liked previous Lamp of Murmuur releases but they didn't stand out for me like they did for some folks. I guess that I am less blown away by 'excellently executed example of this subgenre' than most. But this? This is great. If the Sisters of Mercy-esque cover wasn't enough to tip you off, the first track will. This is black metal combined with post punk, goth and death rock, along with some flashes of Petty/Knopfler esque guitar work. It's emotive, it's fun, it's catchy as fuck. William Knight
