Review by Sonny for NONE - Damp Chill of Life (2019)

NONE's latest bout of depressive black metal, despite the cover, is more about a coldness of the soul than an actual physical coldness. The kind of iciness and hopelessness that accompanies bouts of depression where, like an interminable winter, it sometimes seems as though the hope of spring will never come. The lengthy passages of minimalistic piano notes add to this frigidness in a way that is more effective than any amount of blasting could ever be. May be a little too successful in portraying the feeling of real depression for anyone familiar with that feeling to feel entirely comfortable with.
