Great as fuck. BURZUM's intensity, ALCEST-like progressions and WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM's meditative approach blended into some different kind of brew. tongueless
Listening to Ultha is comparable to standing in front of a marauding grizzly bear completely without any defense whatsoever: overpowering, hurting, and most likely lethal. Their hallmark blend of atmospheric black metal is among the most entrancing I have ever heard and should serve as an inspiration for other bands. Instead of just adding a layer of synth and calling it a day, Ultha goes the extra mile - they play with depth, exertion and your expectations, resulting in a transfixing voyage. David Fischer
Very late to the party, but for several years I've found melodic black metal all too similar and all albums sounding like Dissection, etc... HOWEVER, not only I am back into it but UADA is still a layer of complexity above the main baseline and this is an old album worth having, that's a basic milestone in UADA's discography and I felt it needed to be part of my BC collection. sachavonkarl74
Supplementing sasscore insanity with bolstered vocals and pop-punk songcraft, the California band are kicking ass and breaking boundaries. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 21, 2024
Tout est une question de perspective.
En regardant la pochette d'Algleymi, on se dira : "c'est un constat d'échec de l'humanité face aux puissances cosmiques". Mais le gigantisme de cette silhouette est un signe que Misþyrming veut plutôt s'emparer de cette puissance et le black metal le confirmera très vite. Il est plus maîtrisé, massif et épique. Si le chant est déjà impressionnant, dégageant plus de haine, les guitares sont de leur côté absolument monumentales. Un chef-d'œuvre du genre ! Jordan Vauvert
