The Great Old Ones' new album Al Azif has just been released on their Bandcamp! This is french black metal heavily inspired by HP Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. The is also french black metal that conjures atmospheric visions of dread. Throughout six epic tracks you can hear a post-metal sensibility at work in the way they twist and turn, and mixes the dread with passages of stark beauty. A sentiment mirrored in this quote from the Lurker's Path review:
Equal parts aggressive and serene – The Great Old Ones manage to summon feelings of the sublime and majesty, terror and fear, as well as hate and belligerence.For more info on The Great Old Ones, check their website.
