atmospheric black metal

by GetMusic

From the ashes of grief, atmospheric black metal bleeds anew: Belgian collective Splendidula's Absentia — written in the wake of losing bassist Peter Chromiak — blends black metal and doom with fragile atmospheric passages across six sorrow-drenched tracks, featuring guest vocals from Aaron Stainthorpe (My Dying Bride) and Tim Yatras (Austere, Germ) on the suffocating title track. Descending into darker ritual territory, Black Shaman's Tradition fuses cinematic ambient soundscapes with black metal and doom, conjuring hypnotic shamanic atmospheres like a shadowy film score of death and rebirth.
