If ambitious melodic black metal is your thing, then Sanctuary Fortress is right up your alley .

This one-man band explores a big bag full of sounds, reminiscent of more shoegazy American bands Deafheaven and Woe and melodic Scandinavian BM bands like Catamenia and early Satyricon.

There are even doses of thrash and death metal. “No Vision” is perhaps the best track on the record, meshing technicality and atmosphere into one.

There’s a little bit of everything thrown in here.
