AETERNUS - Beyond The Wandering Moon Digi-CD

At a full hour ‘Beyond the Wandering Moon’ is oppressive, haze-inducing and begins to drag slightly as the implementation begins to hit upon redundant song structures. So, even though I consider it one of the best black metal-related releases of all time I understand it is overly long and an example of excess drive and inspiration. I have equally high praise for the band’s second album ‘…And So the Night Became’ and recommend both to fans of melodic black metal, atmospheric death metal, black/death metal, black folk/metal, and everything in between that is so strongly represented in Aeternus‘ debut.
