A new review section: Buried by Time And Dust

We added a new review section, coincidentally another Mayhem reference following 'The Past is Alive', with the title 'Buried by Time and Dust'. Over the years, a lot of promos have been gathering dust simply because a fresh wave of promos arrived the following month and they were consigned to oblivion. We will review them here to make a clear distinction with our other reviews. We will also use it to complete a discography in terms of reviews. Feel free to contact us if you would like to submit your music or would like to join the staff.

Évidemment, le Black Metal du Québec à leur manière.

A certain part of the scene there appeals to me quite a lot, one of those acts being Fortresse with their “Métal noir Québécois” and my personal favourite “Thèmes pour la rebellion”. Moribond, multi-instrumentalist and one of the co-founders of Fortresse, created Serment years ago, as the demo “Par-delà collines et rivières”, released by Tour de Garde in 2019, for a more atmospheric and winter-like approach yet keeping the focus on up-tempo and aggressive riffs as well. All packed with fine melodies and although heavily reliant on the keys, it is not annoying or over-the-top in any way which makes “Chante, ô flamme de la liberté” a job well done.

Fine Black Metal from Québec once again. (Ricardo)
