The greatest black metal album of all time, without question.
REASONS
Trveness: 95% of black metal bands fail on principle alone - they drape themselves in nationalistic spite, yet sing in English, the language of globalist submission. They are cultural Christians not without even knowing it, shackled to the very forces they claim to oppose. Nokturnal Mortum sing in their mother tongue, channeling something far older and primal. Their music isn't made to sound mythical due to genre conventions IT IS mythical.
Depth: Black metal is a father-genre, a masculine force, a guardian of something greater than the self. It is not a hollow scream into the void, but a duty. Its musicians bear the weight of mythology, of heritage, of something sacred that must be protected, not mindlessly repeated like some trendy teenage obsession. Most black metal musicians fail this responsibility. They don’t know what they’re doing, their compositions are little more than fogged-out, looping self-indulgence, a transe with no vision, a ritual with no meaning. The Voice of Steel it's pure information. Every note, every shift, it doesn’t just wash over you, it TELLS you something. It’s not an aimless drift, it’s the clarity of LSD, a full-spectrum experience that expands rather than numbs. Purposeful, meaningful, immediate, real.
