H.L.
HAIMAD get everything right with their melodic approach to black metal. Epic atmosphere, symphonic touches, grim aggression, and a brooding, icy chill are wonderfully balanced and wrapped in an organic soundscape. The album's mood is reminiscent of the glorious 90s and contains some majestic, catchy hits like "When Night Rode Across the North," "Nen Cenedril," "Naur," and "Voice of the Dread Abomination." A truly outstanding album!
Favorite track: When Night Rode Across the North.
