Review by Sonny for Despondent Moon - The Infernal Shadows of Winter (2020)

A relatively short album of lo-fi atmospheric black metal from Deorc Weg's solo BM project with a couple of his usual dungeon synth interjections thrown in for good measure. It's rabid and ragged-sounding and blasts as hard as the winter winds it invokes. Apart from closing track The Veil of the Wintermoon none of the songs are over five minutes long, so they don't get the chance to become too repetitive and boring, knowing just when to take their leave.
