----------------------------------------------
A more well-known band, Nyktalgia has taken the Black Metal world by storm with their two releases over the past few years. Featured here is their debut self-titled, a scintillating array of depressive genius. This is very similar to Walknut, er Walknut is similar to Nyktalgia (they were here first!), with similar guitar tones and vocals at times.
A very hypnotizing album with furious drumming, constantly pummeling the listener into a lifeless, entrancing submission. Some of the best riffs around are displayed here, long and drawn out, surely satiating any appetite you have for completion. Some bands don't riff long enough, or stray away toward something else before you're done listening to a particular part, but not Nyktalgia. They see their songs through to the very end, making sure there are no dead ends or leftover "holes" in the music. A very successful album, to say the least. Highly recommended if you're a fan of Wolves in the Throne Room, Walknut, Negură Bunget, etc.
