As an aside, perfect spot for a review, framing and background is ace! \m/

Its a huge investment. Been through the whole thing twice. I really like the production, sounds massive if a little more rawer than I'm Wald. I think I like Im Wald a tad bit better but really you can't go wrong with his stuff. Perfect timing to be socked into the winter and accompany the Wanderer's journey!

Show balls?

In this video at 3:28 you mentioned you know of other artists that do Panopticon's style of folk better. Would you be able to list some for me? would love to check em out

Christian Black Metal fan here. Really enjoyed this discussion. Since getting into the genre I've sought after a particular sound/atmosphere that Black Metal provides, lyrics usually come secondary. I love me some Panopticon, Paysage Dhiver, Altar of Plagues. If anyone knows any christian BM style bands that are similar in vibe to any of these, especially with any lyrics about end times/revelation type stuff, im all ears

Cool 😎🤘🏻❄️🌲

Agree with your initial thoughts. I’m a big fan of his older stuff, but enjoy most of the new (I didn’t bother with Geister). I’ve also listened to Die Berge twice now and to me some of it kind of harkens back to the older stuff but definitely with better production. Agree with the Das Tor comparison. I think Die Berge is a pretty awesome album!!

sound of Urgrund is colossal, ancient, and unforgiving. It was like a titan erupting from the mountain's core, channeling the raw, ancient force of the earth itself. riffs are like the heartbeats of the primordial void, embodying the crushing weight of timeless, mythic power. As in other compositions, it's Cold, desolate, yet cathartic-a monolithic presence that shatters the silence of the void! Hail the winter! Ave, Keep it up!

Schnee 4 is best black metal song ever

Looks like hikes are back on the menu boys. Looked like a great one! Look forward to check out the band. Bet your stoked on the season getting out there! I think when it comes to production, lately I dig that new Mork. Sounds great but also retains a bit of grit and grim. Look forward to more!!

Excellent album and an excellent review man. Great stuff on your channel.

Allegedly, one of the members of this band was in Sorhin, which explains the quality. Really good stuff and I agree with the production talk, especially the part of the deluge of "raw" black metal bands out of the woodwork.

I need to pull this one back out and give it a spin again, I got it back when it came out. I do like this project quite a bit!

HE IS BACK! 🙌🙌

🤘🤘🤘

Sounds like it was pretty windy out

You're actually right. Wintherr stated in an interview that Im Wald and Geister were written more or less at the same period of time. And overall a great review and landscape. PDH is one of the greatest.

that's a perfect place to listen to black metal!

Hails!!!

I'm not into Cookie Monster vocals. However, Aquilus scratches a specific itch that no other band satisfies.

I cannot explain which feelings arise, however, whenever I hear this it's different.

Wtf Agalloch is back?! Fuck yeah bois! 🤘

Really Peak Paysage d´Hiver. All his experience with the previous records, was completed here in perfection. The high point in this case also means, that it never got as good again after that. You could really tell from the last two albums. Maybe he should have ended the project with "Das Tor".

The album supplication is amazing

How did I miss this? Hopefully they come back to LA soon!

They're just geniuses in their sound crafting. Indeed unique! Thanks for filming this, one of my favorite songs of the life, they sound better now than ever, such a blessing they've came back.

Nice review! Subscribed

Hello from France, I discovered your channel thanks to Alaskan Bergwanderer which I also really like! Superb videos, no unnecessary words, vegetation and wildlife, quiet hiking as I like! Thank you very much for sharing, one more subscriber in solidarity between hikers and TH-camrs! Thank you, Laurent🙂👍

that's some pretty awful clean vocals

Welcome back sir! It is quite the album, for sure..great stuff.

Great review and scenery as always.

Glad to see you back my friend, your videos are so good and very original, love seeing the beautiful nature you hike in, and good review of this epic album

Does anyone know if they are paying in NYC in July?

Need to check this album. So far this year I've been listening to a lot of noise rock and post-punk, and way too much Shellac and Big Black (RIP Steve Albini), but the best black metal albums I've heard so far from this year are the latest Oppressive Descent; Sulphuric Wrath, Flamekeeper's self-titled debut, Primitive Warfare's Extinction Protocol, The Infernal Sea's Hellfenlic and Nimbifer's Der b​ö​se Geist.

Nimbifer and Candelabrum been getting the most listens for me so far this year.

I actually found this band when I was looking for bands that sound like Opeth when I was 16 or so lmao.

Sweet! I thought you abandoned this channel - Always loved your recs and reviews

great to have you back. I know what I'm listening to this afternoon!

lucky !!

I really appreciate a lot this band, I'd do anything to listen to a new album 🦌 Sadly I never had the opportunity to see them alive 😐

LENDAS.

Best fucking band

kings of black metal

Missing your videos dude!

is he gonna do the sweep pick is don gonna do the sweep pick is he gonna do it is he is he

this used to be the best music on ifunny back in like 2015 LMAO

Hello! I would like get you this concert full, do you interested in share it?

Those are some legit criticisms of RABM, I appreciate the intelligence behind that statement. Rosa Luxemborg I think they are called are pretty solid, not even sure if they are really Black metal its more just chaotic and fast, but interesting. I agree about it going both ways, but Ashenspire and Dawn Ray'd are both perfect examples of bands I just can't get into cause its cheeseball as fuck, more so the latter who just reminds me of that preppy cool kid in high school who wanted to pretend he was interesting so he got into "Black metal" and grew his hair out. Thing is, the very few NS related bands I enjoy are in a different language or its something completely unrelated. Even if Finist was good, which they are not they are laughably bad, I could never take them seriously for the same exact reason. I'd rather have something like Downfall of Gaia, that is more an introspective and existential analysis of the downfall of society.

Man, I love these guys. Such excellent tunes.

I hope they come to the UK. Not sure if they will but I can only hope. I love this band so fucking much
