about

Stygian Black Hand solemnly presents the debut demo of this melancholic, introspective black metal project, given its first ever physical release on cassette format. On “Through the Branches to Eternity”, we see the artist’s intent in its most nascent, unadulterated form. The opening track “Sorrow” is an eerie and mesmerizing work of depressive black metal, showcasing the interesting guitar work, moody vocal delivery, and candid lyricism that would be further refined on the beloved full-length that soon followed this recording. This distorted nightmare is then juxtaposed with the title track, a dreamy acoustic composition. Despite the hopeless dejection conveyed in the lyrics, the artist exposes his inner feelings to the listener with a compelling youthfulness, confidence, and acceptance. Finally, we get a previously unreleased raw rehearsal recording of “Sorrow”, sure to please die hards and completists looking for any and all of the secrets behind the captivating mind of Këkht Aräkh. Before night and love, there was eternity...

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

Damp Chill of Life
by NONE

supported by 8 fans who also own “Sorrow”

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable... Jordan Vauvert
