It's been pretty quiet around Darkspace lately, our beloved real-life version of the Total Perspective Vortex, but thankfully its members are not resting on their well-earned laurels. Well, at least guitarist/vocalist Zhaaral isn't, fellow members Wroth and Zorgh seem to have taken a break for a while. Oh well, each to his own, right? Read more ›› |

Sun Of The Blind is a side-project by one of the three Darkspace members. While it shares a few traits with the Swiss three-headed Total Perspective Vortex, most importantly the endless obsession with space and the void. Sun Of The Blind, however, approaches space from a far more melodic angle, being both easier on the ears and having a lot more grandeur. Skullreader thrives on the constant intertwining of melodic leads and majestic synths, pushing each other to astral heights. Eerie, dreamy breathtaker of an album.

That opening track though. Gets me every time.

It's nice but how is this avantgarde? Sounds like typical atmospheric/ambient black. Something like a toned down version of Darkspace.

This album is great, listen to this album. It stands among the best ambient BM albums of all time, but gains even more meaning when taken in the context of the Darkspace/Paysage D´hiver/Sun of the Blind trinity.
