A truly stellar death/doom album with heavy doses of black metal. Tracks like Isolation, Child of Light, and Broken Hymns deliver the sorrowful and icy tone of this album, elevated by the stirring cello compositions of Raphael Weinroth-Browne. The album delivers a deeply satisfying crescendo in Becoming Intangible before stirring the soul once again with Epilogue. Matt Richardson
French Melodic Black Metal. What a fantastic album! There is even an oboe, no less & it fits beautifully! I just finished my first listen & had to have more & bought Forteresse as well... :) Highly recommended!!! bmurator
