A World in Their Screams

by Elend

supported by

Sugammadex I can think of very few albums that invoke an authentic, visceral fear — and through sound alone. This album is objectively horrifying in altered states, resembling a sonic portrait of existential trepidation & worldly dread untouched by even the most depraved extremes of metal. Favorite track: Urserpens.

Jordan Vauvert Et voici que le périple s'achève...

Lors de la conception de A World in Their Screams, Elend perd plus de la moitié de sa formation orchestrale. Tout s'annonçait pour être un échec.
Pourtant, A World in Their Screams est l'album le plus noir du groupe. Des cordes plus abstraites et infernales ("Le Dévoreur"), des cuivres démentiels ("Je rassemblais tes membres"), une narration chuchotée par Iskandar Hasnawi qui fait froid dans le dos. Cet album n'est pas juste une conclusion : c'est la Fin. Favorite track: Le Fleuve infini des morts.

nawzda Ominous, grim, bleak, emotive & apocalyptic. Such powerful atmosphere, grandeur and terror. Thanks for existing. Favorite track: A World in Their Screams.

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrming

supported by 22 fans who also own “A World in Their Screams”

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

Tout est une question de perspective. En regardant la pochette d'Algleymi, on se dira : "c'est un constat d'échec de l'humanité face aux puissances cosmiques". Mais le gigantisme de cette silhouette est un signe que Misþyrming veut plutôt s'emparer de cette puissance et le black metal le confirmera très vite. Il est plus maîtrisé, massif et épique. Si le chant est déjà impressionnant, dégageant plus de haine, les guitares sont de leur côté absolument monumentales. Un chef-d'œuvre du genre ! Jordan Vauvert
