"Following on from their successful 10 Year Anniversary Tour (in Sept/Oct 2017), the UK's finest proponents of atmosphere and emotion, Winterfylleth, return in 2018 with their new album The Hallowing of Heirdom. On this, their 6th album, we once again see the band continuing to push the boundaries of their sound into new territories; this time with an entirely acoustic album comprising of 12 brand new tracks."

First track, bitches.

Winterfylleth got even more dreary. Colour me asleep.

Neo folk, acoustic album , I like neo folk, its better music as jump core and some more extreme screaming bands what are popular now and are in metal subgenres. This music has more spirit, more heathen heritage. Its like great Halgadopm, one BM, one neo folk album, sad that band is misuncertor for things what they are not.

Yeah this is really nice. A bit long for the style they're playing, however the last song made the journey worth it.

Masterpiece for those who can get into it.

Dark folk, nothing much here. but fans of the genre will probably like.

This is so pure, I don't care what you guys think about, this is pure.

Apparently, some sick fuck has cut down the 300 year-old tree that is on the cover art of this album. I sincerely hope they die a slow and horrible death. The older I get, the more firmly I believe we should be wiped off the face of this planet sooner rather than later. We are nothing more than narcissistic parasites, destroying everything beautiful that surrounds us. Every single living thing on this planet would be so much better off without our presence. I am in such a misanthropic mood right now.

That tree was a legendary Northumberland landmark, I once had a spot of lunch under it when I walked along Hadrian's Wall years ago, and still remember it to this day. It was also known as the Robin Hood tree by locals because apparently it was featured in a scene on Robin Hood Prince Of Thieves with Morgan Freeman and Kevin Costner under it. I'm devastated that twat had to cut it down, and for what? So he could have a laugh and brag about it to his mates.

All cattle decapitation songs make sense now.

Bloody hell I hate people.

People get more worked up over trees and animals than they do rape, murder, and war. The internet brings out the funniest people.

Anyway... this is a solid album. Dark folk can easily become (and tends to be) uninspiring and boring, but I like a lot of what this album brings, and the tracks manage to distinguish themselves from each other.

Don't you think that's a very simplified, one-dimensional, and ignorant view of things?

First of all, it seems you have not understood that Metal Storm is primarily a webzine for music and related issues. The previous posts refer to the album cover, which undoubtedly belongs to the topics that can and should be discussed on this site. However, there's no rape, murder, or war on the cover, so that part of your comment was completely irrelevant and uncalled-for.
Generally, I don't have a big problem with off-topic comments, but resorting to them just to discredit individual users or entire groups of people is a kind of behavior that is not acceptable in this forum.

It goes without saying that rape and war have immediate and profound impacts on human life, but environmental degradation and animal suffering also have far-reaching consequences, affecting ecosystems, climate stability, and ultimately human well-being in the long term. Without trees, plants, and animals, there would be no humans either. This is a very clear and simple causality that even small children understand.
You're implying that concern for trees and animals negates concern for human issues like murder and war. That is not true. Most people can care about multiple issues simultaneously, and addressing one doesn't invalidate the importance of the other. Yet, you suggest with your claim that those who posted before you would abhor the mentioned crimes against humanity less than the actions of an environmental offender or animal abuser.

That's a completely unfounded accusation bordering on defamation, and anyone for whom concepts like decency or respect hold value would be ashamed of it.

Actually, I think it's a very simplified, one-dimensional, and ignorant view of things to wish extinction upon humanity because one idiot chopped down a tree. It seemed to be your tipping point. Maybe you were just having a bad day. But to my defense, you seem to get worked up very easily based on your posts in this thread.

But back on topic - good album. And we can all simply agree that the guy (or lady) who chopped down the tree is an idiot. So let's just agree on those two things and leave it at that.
