Collier d'Ombre-Autumnal Fortress MC
After three demos and 2 splits, the main project of the incredibly prolific Necklace of Shadow unleashes at last its debut full-length record.
Particularly in line with the "...The Piercing Winds of Mortal Dawn" demo release, Collier d'Ombre unlease 66 minutes of pure spiritual warfare and audial torment. Still visibly influenced by 90's currents of valiant and warlike Black Metal, singing omens of barbarism and doomsday chaos, a specter lurks above the fields of silent grass and hills of granite castles, signaling the impending doom and descent into bestiality. 12 tracks, characterized by bulldozing, utterly distorted guitar riffs, combining scorching melodicism with a warlike aggression and heavyness, which is always lurking beneath a veil of spectral keyboards and murky production, only interrupted by the plaintive, stygian interludes of Dungeon Synth mysticism and ancient Folk music.
