As I said once upon a time, the rebellious, anti conventional spirit at the heart of black metal made it destined to be an art that would one day transcend its own conventions. In the 2010s we've been seeing more and more bands demonstrate the truth of this principle, but as for the young Panegyrist? something about this bunch feels especially unique and powerful.

Great album and probably one of the best debuts of the year. Love how this thing just holds your attention throughout and all the melodies get stuck in your head (or mine at least) even in spite of it being quite layered and complex with its songwriting. Very few bands can pull that off

I agree. I absolutely adore the twisted melodies, and the production is just my favorite style.

Lovely album, a perfect blend of melody, progression, clean and growls. Also some pretty good riffs especially in the 8min + mark songs.
