BLUT AUS NORD The Mystical beast Of Rebellion 2CD

French black metal has always had a different relationship with atmosphere than the Scandinavian scene, less kvlt posturing, more genuinely unsettling abstraction, and nobody proved that harder than Blut Aus Nord.

Originally released in 2001, The Mystical Beast of Rebellion is the record where Vindsval fully lost the plot in the best possible way. Industrial textures crawl under tremolo riffs, the song structures feel like they're folding in on themselves, and the whole thing sits in a grey zone between atmospheric black metal, dark ambient, and something that doesn't have a genre name yet. This 2CD digipak reissue gives you the full thing in a format it deserves, which is to say physical, tangible, something you can hold while you try to work out what the hell you're listening to. Essential for anyone who thinks Deathspell Omega is a bit obvious.
