Miserere Luminis writes transportive music that seethes with agony and hope, yet lacks a dimension to separate its densely-packed glamor into the highs and lows I long for.

A Quebec metal gem. You do not need to know french to enjoy this.

Wow, 2026 is an absurd year for Black Metal. Sidera creates insane atmospheres with beautiful arrangements that conclude in one of the best listens of the year for me.
