I have a deep and certain respect for sibling projects, specifically when the projects are entirely identical line-ups performing vastly different styles of metal. The conscious effort to separate ideas entirely and allow them to evolve into their own entities and identities is, in my eyes, a far more commendable approach than intermingling the ideas into a singular project. This sort of experimentation often ends up sounding muddled and disjointed when the overly-ambitious hodgepodge of stylings get in their own way. We see a definitive aptitude and versatility here from a quartet of legendary Ukranian metallers. While Rattenfänger may be a relatively (or entirely) unfamiliar name to dabblers and devotees alike, even the least-initiated of metal-goers will likely recognize the name of their highly praised older sibling?Drudkh.

Solid. Basically Drudkh playing OSDM (literally, not stylistically).

Perfect death metal sound. Too bad that the songwriting is rather boring and the riffs are overly simplistic.

There is definitely something Godfleshy about this. it is monotonous, but then the Godflesh is too but nonetheless good. this is some nice heavy DM...

You did notice that Godflesh has a strike over it, right?

Yup I did. Especially in the beginning of songs like Nunc Scio Tenebris Lux and Clausae Patent.

The growls. THE GROWLS.

It'd be better if Saenko concentrated only on his growls projects like this or Hate Forest. he's so much better on those

What do you think od the latest Hate Forest? I quite love it for being just aggressive Drudkh with him doing the vocals.

I found a bit too straightforward. I'd rather have a new Battlefields. But it's still good to have more bassy black metal back. I thought he had stopped with HF
