Review by Sonny for Wolves in the Throne Room - Thrice Woven (2017)

This may be WITTR best album yet, and if not, it's certainly their best since 2007's Two Hunters. I had almost given up on the band, but this is a welcome return to the blistering, nature-inspired black metal of a decade and more ago from one of the prime movers in the Cascadian BM scene. There's a couple of quieter interludes featuring swedish singer Anna von Hausswolff. Neurosis' Steve von Till provides the clean vocal and plays acoustic on second track The Old Ones Are With Us, but mainly it's classic WITTR, with lyrics encompassing themes such as blessings for the mountain rivers, the celebration of the end of winter and the coming of spring and characters from Norse mythology. Unexpectedly briliant!
