Djur - В Потоках Хаоса Кровей

Genre : Black metal

Usually, when black metal looses its atmospheric vein, I tend to like it less. However, Djur somehow made something catchy without using acoustic lines. I'm not sure why, but I'd say that the melodic riffs are responsible of this. Or maybe the intense, non-linear drumming style? Probably the agressive, wild and powerful vocals too. Anyway, Djur surely know how to play black metal. Songs deliver an awesome lot of intensity, everybody does his job quite well, and compositions are nice enough to sublimate the skills. On top of this, add some very nice production, keeping things audible and raw at the same time. Really an album worth a listen if you enjoy agressive stuff.

Introduction

Ethereal soundscapes is just one more blog that's about music. This one focuses on various kinds of ambient/atmospheric music, be it post-rock, neofolk, or black metal and some alternate genres such as post-metal, post-black or folk black. It mostly tries to stick to an underground scene, you don't want to learn about artists you already know, do you?

I won't give any marks as it'd be pointless, since I love all those albums and would rate them from 8 to 10 out of 10. I prefer using quick, to-the-point reviews that are easily read instead of blabbering a ton about music. Also, summarizing months of work and dedication with a number simply isn't my vision of reviewing. Still I will add, as much as possible, official links for streams, news and merch.
