While most of the Norwegian black metal scene was busy with themes of satanism and rebelling against the christian mainstream, Windir took a very different route. Formed by solo artist Valfar, this band wrote four albums before his untimely passing in 2004. The final effort of the band finally showcases them at their best, not only instrumentally but with a mix that perfectly suits them backing them as well. With perfect clarity, you can hear every single sound that they play. Guitars set the stage for the bass and drums to frame them perfectly while the two vocals duet each other in perfect harmony. Taking a step back from the folk atmosphere for a more black metal approach, this album is the perfect curtain call to the career of the band.
For fans of: Enslaved, Falkenbach, Borknagar
