Something (probably the wine) about France seems to facilitate experimentation more regularly than the various something's about other countries. This album, an industrial-tinged instrumental black metal disc, suitingly for a French band, belongs on the list of French experimentalisms.

"Experimental" here doesn't mean that what these guys do isn't like what others before them have done, it just means that these guys avoid clichés and heard-it-a-thousand-times-before-isms like my old French uncle-in-law avoids toothbrushes and dentists (and American sports... guy's a prick). What they do sounds distinctly like their own music, not like a rehash of old Darkthrone, say, or Emperor, or Mayhem. A good thing for a modern black metal band for the most part.

Rating: 5 Finally heard a track off this and it confirmed my suspicion: not worth checking out at all.

  For me it sounds like industrial version of Burzum

Did you mean this "solo" at 6.25 ?

What? Too technical for Burzum?

But in Varg's execution it is a "fucking good lack of technique"
