Albums like this are a reminder of how great black metal can be when steered in the right direction. Finisterre is remarkably easy to latch on to, but even easier to become immersed in. The atmosphere is haunting yet alluringly catchy, its musical spine constantly tangible. Not only does it keep you on your toes, it gets you to think, feel and ponder. If you enjoy black metal at all, don't skip out on this.

...I'm not a huge black metal fan and I don't like many bands that sing in German, but this album is just amazing, the more I listen to it, the more I like it....so addictive, full of energy and emotions.

As "Finisterre" plays out, there's little you can do but sit in awe, dumbfounded by the amount of skill and precision oozing from each deafening, turbulent track. It's kind of like the band's last album, "Stellar", but on steroids. There's less time to appreciate the ambient sections because they're quickly trampled in the wake of breakneck riffs, but the band's mixture of loud black metal and ambience has never been as potent.

Definitely one of my favorite black metal releases I've heard in a awhile. The drummer is simply incredible and the atmosphere is second to none topped off with fantastic production. Could 5 this in the future

Aufbruch is one of the best opening tracks of recent memory and in contention for the best black metal song of 2017. Finisterre combines the ferocious with the melancholic to create a truly great black metal record that strays somewhat into the atmospheric category. Der Weg Einer Freiheit really excel with the pacing and songwriting creating ebbs and flows, rises and falls that are captivating by juxtaposing rapid fire blast beat BM sections with drawn out atmospheric chordal/lead passages. They also seem to have mastered the transitions between these two modes. The Skepsis series is truly wonderful with a very interesting instrumental in Pt.1 leading into a ravenous, savage awakening in Pt. 2. The album is on the longer side and certainly can be fatiguing but it is one of those records that demands attention with truly wonderful riffs and songwriting brilliance. A must visit for any BM fan.

Another terrific black metal album from Der Weg. The best moments are when the music changes from subdued to blasting ahead without a moments notice.
