Description
If you were impressed by the great 2019 demo from the Finnish act Mooncitadel you will be amazed by their debut album. Nights Scarlet Symphonies is a gigantic step up from the demo and here everything falls in place and the bands artistic vision is finally in full bloom. It comes with an epic atmosphere with dark guitar lines. The melodies incorporates folky/classical elements and thick basslines. Everything about Mooncitadels debut album – spiraling melodicism, folkloric atmosphere, impassioned performance, engrossing totality – maximizes the duo’s previous works to their fullest potential, all threaded together by a never-too-raw soundfield that heightens these elements further. If you are a person who enjoys black metal and enjoys a more Emperor-esque take on black metal, then you will absolutely fall in love with this.
