This one I've already had in the library and it is my favorite so far.
I think it is more on the depressive black metal side though still quite energetic and fast sometimes and retains raw black influences.
Somewhat dark and occult, pretty anxious and desperate.
I like "Screaming at Forgotten Fears" - buzzing, repetitive but meditative. Melodies are simple but satisfying.
But my favorite is "Walker of Dissonant Worlds" - it has very melancholic and soothing flow.
Good one, can recommend it.
