This cd starts out
with a conventional black metal intro which unfortunately doesn't make much
of a difference, then a beautiful guitar section and soon enough the
blasphemous inferno breaks loose. It is not very common for a black metal band
to display any notable musical talents but Saltus from Poland does. Even
though the sound is rather thin due to a poor production it stands beyond
doubt that these guys know that they're doing and they do it fairly well. For
being a black metal album it is still dynamic and less monotonous than the
average release. Saltus devote their music to the past centuries and ancient
days when the law was ruled by Mother Nature herself. Slavonic pagan metal is
the label they have given their music and that probably serves well as a brief
description. This album contains a very intense blend of Nordic black metal
but it is still fairly atmospheric and very melodic at times. If you are a fan
of old-style raw black metal then I think you will be able to enjoy this
release. Unfortunately there are several orchestral interludes on the album
which aren't of very high interest to me.
