Really lame. Though it sounds a little less like Filosofem than Autumn Aurora so that is a +. Some interesting guitar parts occasionally. But for the most part, it's the same tired formula.

"The members’ respective side-projects often lead the band to be labeled as NSBM, but that is simply not the case. Anyone ignorant enough to go around spouting such nonsense can get f*cked."

Old review ik. Blood in Our Wells was literally dedicated to Stepan Bandera.

^^^true



really dig this one, a bit better than autumn aurora surprisingly. definitely a bit more heavy like forgotten legends but also brings in the atmosphere and acoustics from autumn aurora. eternal sun and blood especially standout. the melodies here are beautiful and also love the wild warbly solos especially the folky one at the end of glare. the beginning and end to blood is what i love about drudkh. also love the distortion here feels like proto blackgaze with that and the blasts, price of freedom for sure brings that vibe. also i like the vocals are more in the foreground here.



that all said the folk song at the end i respect for it's cultural importance just isn't great to listen to lol

This is one of my favorite Drudkh albums, always surprised by the average rating. The folk closer is quite nice to my ears too, even if I can understand it might not be for everyohe.
