#AlbumOfTheMonth - September 2021

#Irrlycht - Wolfish Grandeur

Solid old school German #blackmetal. The month has been dedicated to the German extreme metal scene and this new album by Irrlycht fits that perfectly, as it embodies essence of 90s bm with a primal and atmospheric approach matching the theme of wolfish grandeur. I especially like the varied vocals on this one.
