A perfect and very atmospheric black metal song which fits without gap to "V", the last full-length album. Schattenvald is without doubt one of the very best German black metal acts! Ädäm
Another year older and perhaps slightly wiser, I had to do the wise thing and buy this stunning effort by Beltez. While less avant-garde and more direct than A Grey Chill and a Whisper, this album is a tour de force of melancholic and dark melodies, equally comfortable at breakneck speeds as it is in its more contemplative moments. Atmospheric to the hilt, the robust production value makes this feel far more powerful than most ABM contemporaries. Be wise, do the right thing, and buy this! Ippocalyptica
Sometimes, you need some straightforward, high-tempo, slickly-produced, tremolo riff-infused, melodic, and atmospheric black metal, and with A Gaze Into The Abyss, Antlers deliver exactly that. There is nothing dissonant or avant-garde about this, but we have enough other top-shelf bands releasing that sort of black metal. This is the real deal presented in a concise package, and is worthy of any metal fan’s attention. Ippocalyptica
