Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann
Listening to this on shrooms was haunting, which made it into a serious trip! Which was a mistake I was not prepared for. I do have something to say about it though on why I think it such. I have personally experienced several tipi ceremonies. One would stay up through the night, consuming peyote, doing in some sense a molting process and does so by connecting you to the spirit world.
This album does this, but different - I say it transcends that experience, and does it well... On shrooms.

Blut Aus Nord is king. Everything Vindsval does is perfection and his latest masterpiece is of no exception. Its great to see him return to a more traditional bm sound and having a live drummer on this album definitely sets it apart from albums in the past. This is so packed full of content it will take multiple listens to fully digest. Cultureplastic
A spectacular debut album, which sets a brutal and atmospheric tone, very well suited for the cold and unforgiving edges of space they are themed around. An amazing album from start to finish. stormsurge_elite
