Debut full-length 10-track album by SOLARFALL (Krasnoyarsk) laconically titled “Lyod” (Ice), is a good example of furious technical black metal! The influence of the first and the second waves of black metal is evident, but copying is not the case here. The band goes its own way, professionally and confidently employing the best practices and techniques of classic black metal! The album begins with traditional opener from the 90-es – “Sun will Never Rise Again” – a raw and fast song with acoustic inserts. The subsequent songs have the same familiar core ingredients – speed and aggression –but they are more diverse, thanks to the elements of other extreme metal genres, such as death, thrash and black’n’roll. It is mainly the result of a long period of composing.
