| 3.7 great | Erwann S. STAFF | February 6th 20 |
Clearly Thangorodrim's most wintery output, and quite possibly his strongest and most diverse record. The atmosphere is simply captivating, fusing, as garas said, winter and LOTR synth so well it immediately made me think of a colder Depressive Silence. The distant black metal shrieks add an epic Burzum layer, and we are even granted with a small Hobbit flute moment, making this lost gem a must-listen in terms of dungeon synth. However, even though most of this is gorgeous, I found some moments to be of lesser quality (especially the middle part of the record). I can't believe this dude comes from Arizona though.

Finally, the lost album by Thangorodrim!! The distinctive aesthetics can be found here, and the album sounds just as wonderful as expected. Interestingly, "The Darkening of Valinor" has the most diverse atmosphere from the whole discography: it is like all the unique winter synth, epic old-school and medieval styles are mixed together - which is extremly exciting. Wonderful album.
