Upon the Hills of Divination

unidual Mid-fast, and furious. The sense of ineluctability reminds me of the Greek BM scene, which is a compliment I guess. Thanks Jon M for (re)putting them on my radar.

Wheels of Mercury A long while ago, this band was one of the first rawer black metal bands I ever got into. They might not be as raw anymore, and they might be a duo now, but THEY STILL GOT IT!

Marc brauch mal wieder frischen merch! Absolut grossartiges Album!

about

"Upon the Hills of Divination" is Sun Worship’s second album as a duo. In the years since releasing 2019’s "Emanations of Desolation" they managed to hone their already elaborated drums'n'guitar assault to maximize impact. Combining versatile, restless and passionate drumming with detailed, varied and harsh, high-octane riffing there’s hardly a second to rest over the course of its playtime. And yet, there are rare moments of beauty, silence and calm emerging from the sonic abyss Sun Worship drag you into. A sense of wonder and relief contrasting the overall doomed caveman-atmospheres provided. "Upon the Hills of Divination" delivers a stripped-down, fierce and primal – yet sophisticated, confident and well-versed listening experience. If you’re looking for an uncompromising, unpredictable and unique blend of Death, Black and simply no-bullshit Metal, look no further.

Nocturnal Will

Pyrrhic victory in the biting wind and the dark snowy field – Doedsrit, as many others mention, field an excellent mix of icy bleakness with majestic triumph. Every song stands out as an excellent ballad of holding on to something despite the odds. I like how the melodies and rhythms blend more stately metal and more driving punk elements to communicate different despairing vs. rebellious moments. Defiant, sorrowful, melodious, heavy – this album brings something we all need right now. pinkytheent
