Sun of the Sleepless To the Elements Review. It took me three full listens of one man German black metal project Sun of the Sleepless debutwhile thinking Gee, this guy surelikes The Vision Bleak before I realized that guy is actually The Vision Bleaks Ulf Theodor Schwadorf. In retrospect, I cant blame myself for my ignorance. While Sot. S actually predates TVB by a year, Schwadorf spent nearly two decades honing his aesthetic through the latter bands death soaked riffs and gothic horror atmosphere, whereas the former is only just now poking its head out from the underground after a decade of inactivity.

To the Elements is a triumphant modern black metal record, folding old and new corners of the style together in a work of stark beauty that feels unique and relevant in the current field. Sun of the Sleepless handle on black metal is supremely confident and impressively nuanced. The first proper track, Motions, is a sprawling, bittersweet piece that immediately establishes Schwadorfs surefootedness, gorgeous melodies naturally flowing into each other through the subtle adding and subtracting of guitar, synth, and choral layers. This fluid songwriting remains static throughout To the Elements and offers a sense of craftsmanship thats sorely absent from most traditional black metal records. Traditional isnt quite an accurate descriptor, though. Watch Caiu na Net Video Caseiro Que Marido Corno Fe free porn video on MecVideos. Fidget Spinner is a toy.

S owes much to traditional black metal see the wonderfully authentic Darkthrone worship in Realm of the Bark, it often emulates the rhythmic blast beating and major scale melodics of atmospheric black metal and post black metal, respectively. Schwadorf harvests traits from these genre offshoots without ever fully conforming to them, resulting in a colorful playbook that fully fleshes out Tt. Es concise run time. If the progressive compositions represent the brains of Sun of the Sleepless, its persistent, authentic atmosphere is its vibrant, beating heart. The blossoming song structures and the melodies contained within feel organic and seamless, a quality perhaps born of Schwadorfs infatuation with the untamed forest. I often neglect to touch on lyrics and themes especially when discussing extreme metal, but To the Elementsmusic feels intrinsically tied to its words. The topics, which range from the ceaseless forces of the wilderness Motions to the cleansing properties of fire Phoenix Rise, are beautifully written celebrations of evergreen environs synonymous with black metal, nailing what makes the genre function on an emotional level without succumbing to Satanic or anti Christian tropes. This atmosphere is so consistent in both the lyrics and the music itself that The Forest, a brief acoustic number that heavily recalls Schwadorfs Empyrium project, somehow feels completely at home among the chilly tremolo runs and abrasive, barking vox. The atmosphere is persistent throughout, yet To the Elements isnt lacking in weight to anchor its aura. This is an uncommonly heavy black metal album akin in style to fellow countrymen Secrets of the Moon, Schwadorf importing his signature downtuned guitar style to craft weighty passages that the genre typically leaves behind in favor of frigid, blistering blasting. The latter certainly isnt in short supply here, but moments like the doomy, methodical crush of Where in My Childhood Lived a Witch which builds towards an immensely satisfying payoff in a blastbeat run that had me positively grinning on first listen and the stomping melodeath crunch of Phoenix Rise lend the album not only weight, but an impressive level of variety that never feels forced. My only minor disappointment with the song structures is that certain tracks namely Motions and Where in My Childhood opt for extended fade outs rather than proper conclusions, but the record is so engaging on a whole that this is an easily glossed over quibble when Im not in review mode. On multiple occasions Ive seen instances where one of our commenters asks a question that I feel is one of the most common among metal fans Where do I start with black metal This is never an easy question to address as individual tastes widely vary, but To the Elements might be a prime jumping off point as a celebration of the genres entire history without reverting to low fi throwback production gimmickry. Sun of the Sleepless has forged a gorgeous record, not just in the bleak, sorrowful mode endemic to black metals atonal nature, but in the more conventional sense that implies sweeping melodies and thoughtful construction.
