I have been an avid black metal fan for the past decade, after stumbling across De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas by the behemoths that are Mayhem, and after many years of exploring new bands I can happily say that Ellende is the greatest black metal band there is. The combination of haunting classical influences and black metal just take you to a place where no other band has ever done for me.
This album to me is the perfect black metal album, nothing can touch it.
