TWELVE YEARS OF UNWANTED OPINION
Maddeningly lo-fi but also somewhat endearing, this muffled journey through introspective black metal is a bit rough around the edges. However, there’s enough charm here to keep me interested to completion. Not the best thing I’ve ever heard, but it isn’t trying to be.
Dense, scouring (what appears to be) analog noise from Werewolf Jerusalem, to whose credit, their 15 minutes sails by as if I am being carried along on a haze of audible wire. Culver is more restrained, offering a similar length piece but of the atmospheric, ambient variety. Dark, menacing ambience of course, but not the kind that will knock you out of your seat. More the kind of menancing ambience that would be the soundtrack to be walking around a dodgy part of town in the middle of the night looking for the address of someone who apparently can hook you up with some snuff porn.
