Black metal album of the year #1

Dunno about AOTY, but this and the other one are fairly decent, sure. I'm slightly preferring Nirvana at the moment though.

In connection with #4, only yesterday India swarmed in Mahashivratri which celebrated in honor of Lord Shiva by repeating #4 chant and in particular, marks the night of the heavenly marriage and consummation between Shiva and Parvati. It is also referred to as the night when Shiva performs the heavenly dance.

I was looking at a few decade ending list and this band with one of their album's written in Hindi script caught my eye. Yes, I am talking about the 2013 album मृत्यु का तापसी अनुध्यान. Having read rave reviews of the band I was waiting for them to release a new album so that I can taste their work 1st hand. Coming to this double whammy of an album I would place Moksha a little bit ahead of Nirvana. Nirvana's chanty "Buddha 1" is as special as Moksha's ode to Lord Shiva's, "Har Har Mahadev". However Moksha has a better riffing structure in my opinion. This may be an unpopular opinion but I found a few riffs in Moksha slightly Deafheaven-ish. Also Moksha's third track, "(Ne)Čistý"is very reminiscent to the opening riff of Shaarimoth's, "The Hungry Omega".

Also I think these guys are more cognizant about Hindu mythology than I am.
