Australian act Lament in Winter’s Night teamed up with Obsidian Grave from the USA to release a split on cassette, each presenting two tracks of uncompromising Raw Black Metal.
‘Yearning for Darker Days’ just delivers the goods for those who resist any modern sounding Black Metal act. The Seer of Lament in Winter’s Night created Raw Black Metal with melodic hooks from the Finnish scene and did a splendid job once again. Only this time, especially during opening track ‘A Somber Realisation’, it has a more melancholic touch than on the split with Night’s Treshold.
Obsidian Grave’s Black Metal is fierce, the sound is thinner and it is more gloomy in general, compared with the performer of the two first songs. But like Lament in Winter’s Night, very well performed.
If you stumble across this split tape, don’t hesitate to buy it.
