Austrian (largely) one-man black metal project, Anomalie incorporate a varying spectrum of atmospheric and post-black metal stylings into their sound.  With a heavy focus on dreams, spirituality, nature, urban life, emotions and social criticism you can predict that it is no Immortal clone.  Instead it has an almost gothic undertone to the modern bm take that dominates the 6 tracks (including one NiN/Jonny Cash cover - which is awful) and manages to hit some rich veins of ethereal melody along the way.  My main issue is with the vocals, they are too clean for my liking given the rather naïve and cringey lyrical skills that where on show for this debut release.  It feels like too overt an expression of emotion that is dramatic for drama's sake and I found myself hitting the skip button at least twice during the listen throughs of this.
