|| ||
|| This is the third album from Swiss black metal solo band ||
|| Paysage d'Hiver. ||
|| ||
|| Die Berge contains a colossal 103 minutes of ||
|| atmospheric/ambient black metal for the listener to feast upon ||
|| greedily. The artist behind Paysage d'Hiver has created an ||
|| album to fall deeply into, never to return. ||
|| ||
|| Sometimes all you need is some epic-length black metal to lose ||
|| yourself in, and Die Berge is exactly one such absorbing album. ||
|| It's an enthralling journey that the artist takes you on, and ||
|| it's worth the time investment as the atmospheres are deep and ||
|| captivating; Die Berge is incredibly atmospheric. The goal of ||
|| the music is black-metal-as-pure-atmosphere, and in this it ||
|| excels. Which, of course, is a really good thing for such a ||
|| long album. ||
|| ||
|| This is black metal that's raw and mood-focused, dragging the ||
|| listener through a freezing windswept environment that s as ||
|| harsh as it is beautiful. It's music that's rooted in the ||
|| Scandinavian second wave, and it's full of cold vast vistas, ||
|| imposing icy peaks, and dark menacing depths. The songs are ||
|| well-crafted, with plenty to hold the listener s attention. ||
|| Atmosphere is king in these hostile lands, and tools like ||
|| emotive melody, serrated violence, frosted riffs, and ambient ||
|| touches all add to the comprehensive worldbuilding that the ||
|| artist undertakes with such apparent ease. ||
|| ||
|| Now, you may quite reasonably be thinking, that s all well and ||
|| good, but do I really need over 100 minutes of the stuff? Well, ||
|| that depends. I say yes quite strongly, but then I m ||
|| particularly partial to this heavily atmospheric style, as well ||
|| as raw old-school black metal and very long, immersive albums. ||
|| So, for me, this hits the spot. If you re at least partial to ||
|| anything along those lines, I'd definitely recommend engrossing ||
|| yourself in Die Berge. Basically, Paysage d'Hiver's music is ||
|| underground, grim, frostbitten, and long, and if this appeals ||
|| to you then Die Berge is an essential experience to undertake. ||
