Black Shadow from Russia is one of those bands that have released quite some albums, some are even in my possession, but never got any attention.
With “……Сквозь Чёрное Пламя Молоха…(“…Through the Dark Flame of Moloch…”)” they have released their 8th album since 2004, all sung in their native language. Being promoted as intense Black Metal with Swedish melodic guitar structures in the vein of Setherial, Lord Belial and Dissection, they raise the bar quite high. Although the mentioned influences are there, they can’t reach the bar.
It’s a bit above average, not bad but to generic if you ask me.
