Nocht - Lore Of Sorrows
The world of black metal and dungeon synth goes hand in hand from time to time, and this latest release from Nocht is no exception.
More ambient-based than guitars really; from slowed-down-funeral-black-metal/ambient to moody and beautiful medieval sounding harpsichord-synths (I think) plus additional majestic and epic piano+choir/synth melodies. Some of the background synths take me back to my old Amiga500, remember the computer game firm called Psygnosis and the music which we in their games?. Surely for those who love the cursed and haunted castle-ruins feel! 25 minutes of majestic pure orchestral ambient-doom for fallen empires!
As mentioned earlier, this is the latest release by Nocht (1st November 2017) and it has been made available as a physical (and beautiful) cassette release via Stench Ov Death Prod. Additional digital albums are available via the official Nocht Bandcamp site. Extra info about these additional digital albums cannot be found via Discogs, cause no information regarding these hasn´t been added yet. If we cross our fingers, we might see more cassette releases with this act.
