"It’s not an album about beauty or Vikings, but instead obsessed with its own ugliness, dropping a major chord or big chorus in just when things are on the verge of being too displeasing for too long.Once the ugliness becomes familiar, its obscured textures come out: those spidery arpeggios are straight up oddball jazz, like what would happen if Varg Vikernes listened to Cecil Taylor or John Coltrane’s “Om” instead of, you know, thinking all non-Aryan races were inferior. And Bergraven’s darkness isn’t an angsty or misanthropic lot, but instead an interesting study of shadowy corners, completely mature in its execution as opposed to being trapped in a corpsepainted state of arrested development."
