Our Take
Our Take
The latest offering from Ukrainian black metal band HATE FOREST, "The Most Ancient Ones," is a chilling journey through the depths of darkness. With haunting vocals, relentless blast beats, and savage guitars, this album is not for the faint of heart.
From the moment the first track, "Rite of Imbolc," kicks in, you are transported to a world of blackened forests and ancient rituals. The production is raw and gritty, adding to the overall atmosphere of dread and despair.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Gates," with its thunderous drums and relentless riffage. It's a relentless assault on the senses that will leave you feeling as if you've been dragged through a murky swamp by a horde of demons.
Throughout the album, HATE FOREST showcases their mastery of creating a dark and oppressive atmosphere. Tracks like "Thorns" and "Fimbulwinter" are prime examples of the band's ability to conjure up a sense of unease and dread.
Overall, "The Most Ancient Ones" is a powerful and intense album that will appeal to fans of extreme music. HATE FOREST have once again proven why they are one of the most revered bands in the black metal scene. So, grab your black candles and prepare to be consumed by the darkness.
