LORD THE, Forest Nocturne RSD 12" Vinyl Trans Blue (2022)

Some records are not for the faint-hearted or the time-poor. Forest Nocturne is one of them, and that is entirely the point.

Lord The sit at the intersection of drone, doom, black metal and dark ambient, which is to say they make music that sounds like standing alone in old-growth forest at 3am and not knowing whether to feel terrified or at peace. This Record Store Day 2022 release on translucent blue vinyl is the kind of object that looks as good on a shelf as it sounds through a decent pair of headphones in a dark room. If you've worn out your Sunn O))) records or find yourself reaching for Ulver's more atmospheric work, this belongs in your collection. Heavy music for people who take heaviness seriously.

Format: 12" full-length album, translucent blue vinyl, RSD 2022 release. Country of origin: USA. Genre: drone, doom, black metal, dark ambient.

Fans of: Sunn O))), Goatsnake, Ulver, Burning Witch.
