Velka - Purgatori Ignis Iudicium (CD)
Super fast and, at the same time, melodic black metal from Basque Country. Early Dark Funeral, Marduk, but really violent!! As if an ancient forest was taking its revenge on this filthy humanity.
Second opus of the French army. Great pagan black metal!

From the members of Aldaaron comes a darker more brutal black metal beast. This was originally envisioned as a demo that was to be released by Engulfed In Darkness however the label folded before it could be realized, and over time this became a full-length instead. There are elements of ambience and darkness that will help you escape this mortal coil. An empty cold feeling is projected. At one moment they crush your skull with some of the fastest blasting ever heard, once again delivered by Morkk with the distinct rasp of Ioldar tearing through the atmosphere while others they take you to a heaver darker place. Killer riffs, some chanted vocals, surround the dark void they create, and you can drift away as you choose.
Third work of this inspired band of loyal pagan black metal. Sharpen your sword and climb towards this sacred summit.
An excellent sample of Celtic pagan black from the lush forests of Cantabria. With two decades of experience behind them, Briargh and their fourth album are exemplary in terms of spirituality and mysticism.
