If you have read my review of Ghostlands - Wounds From A Bleeding Earth, you can imagine how quick I was to grab Nattarvet from the stack of promos waiting to be reviewed. Wormwood's second full-length offering is different from their debut that topped my 2017 list of favourites and also won two categories in that year's Metal Storm Awards by a landslide, yet you can easily still tell it is the same band behind the heaps of inspiration and songwriting brilliance of both records.

IMHO it's an excelent album. It has a darker tone and slower tempo then Ghostlands, the slow and harsh vocals sound fantastic.
And it contains some wonderful instrumental parts, for example in The Achromatic Road at 3:58 and The Isolationist at 4:44 (that last 3.4 minutes)

It's 16.19 pounds on Amazon. Can you blame people? WTF happened with album prices? New Rammstein CD was 17.99 when it came out. I actually stopped buying physical copies of new releases this year.

Actually, FYA had spotted a bug in the database. It litterally said "Owners: -2 have it" which should technically be impossible, regardless of some labels' alleged (and some label's approved) daylight robbery policy.

Anyway, at least in Germany prices for CD's didn't really raise during the last 25 years. I still remember having paid up to 38 DEM (that's round about 19 EUR) for regular CD's in the 90's. Right now, 13 - 19 EUR (12.5-17 £) is the average price range in Germany for new CD's, depending on the band's fame and your infrastructure.

It is what it is...doesn't change the fact that I can't afford it anymore..

The Isolationist is a stunning song but the others are not as good as it.
Ghostlands is a better album IMO.

I have become the kind of fan i swore to destroy. I was not ready for the change. I would have loved them to make Ghostlands 2 with some fewer arrangements.

I just don't see what all the fuss is about. I particularly dislike the mixture of folk aesthetics and black metal, and the non use of English in international releases. Hard pass for me, as was their previous album

Me being Greek has nothing to do with it my metal brother. I like bands from all over the world. I'm all into atmospheric and symphonic BM & DM and many of my favourite bands are Scandinavian and Polish. Gothenburg DM is probably my favourite style, though I do enjoy all sort of metal genres.

I agree with that, but somehow, bands who sing in portuguese turn me off.

Their full-length debut is still on my list of things to listen to and here I am looking up a thread for their new album... I have so much catching up to do it's crazy, but judging by what people are saying here about their previous release, I'm in for some high quality melodic black metal.

Wonderful mixture of black and folk with great melody to add to it. The last song the isolationist is a masterpiece. I loved ghostlands, I love this too. While the former had a more cheery appearance this has a more sombre mood.

I had to change my rating after I started a liking to atmospheric metal. The second visit after two years made me change my mind.
