Where Meteahna Timpurilor and Obârşie crept into view with measured drones, Datura Străhiarelor declares its arrival much more ostentatiously: a horn blares, a half-growled narration grows into gravelly shouts, and the acoustic backing erupts into electricity. It’s an interesting introduction for a band that so far has slipped that heaviness into the midst of atmosphere.

This is a terrific album, there's so much variety and many traditional folk influences, and the songwriting is passionate and intriguing through the end. Romania is a gold mine for pagan black folk music, Dordeduh, Negură Bunget, and Sur Austru are all geniuses amongst the best in the sub-genre.

Even E-an-na as well.

Thanks for reminding me from your shout for Sur Austru. I was fascinated listened to previous outputs and it was well covered by ScreamingSteel. I need to hop on this soon.

Good album, still far from Aldrlok and Spirits from being the best folk metal album of the year.
