Returning with their first full length album since 2015 (Svmma Fide), Balmog comes in swinging full-force with intense violence, rhythmic guitar riffage, and ominous vibes.

The atmosphere of this album is intense yet balanced. They don’t over do it! This is great news for anyone who is put off by the term “atmosphere”. There are plenty of parts that have this touch (such as the segue Inde Deus Abest) however, when it’s brutal..it’s fucking brutal.

I realize this review is rather short, and most of our reviews will be. The reason is we would like to encourage you to go explore and support the artists. We simply want to give you a taste of what to expect. This album certainly does not let down, I would suggest it for any fans of Andhord, Deathspell Omega, and possibly even Watain
