Every listening year, for metal or otherwise, is bound to have at least one or two "ninja albums" lurking somewhere in the shadows. It's a strange phenomenon, but simple enough to understand. These are the types of albums that seem to just pop out of nowhere at you, with a distinct flair that makes them go from "this is pretty good" to AOTY status in your book too fast for you to even know what happened. For me, these are albums like Hail Spirit Noir's debut in 2012, or Cult Of Fire's one with the Hindi title the year after. Or, in the case of 2015, Remmirath's Shambhala Vril Saucers.

Seriously such an awesome band and album. I've got a close eye on you guys for some more awesome tunes in the future!

And yeah, even if the guitarist maintains that he wasn't inspired by the Meads Of Asphodel for this... I still hear a huge similarity to their sound here. Maybe it's just because I listen to them so much, but the guitar's rapid transition from one style to another, e.g. folk, to black metal, to stoner riffage, but its ability to nonetheless make all those shifts sound completely natural... it's very characteristic of J.D. Tait's style as well. Perhaps it's just him in disguise.
