Description
Still sealed digipak with one bonus track
Return To Deep Lethargy is the fourth studio album from this Spanish black metal horde” Dealing with death, humanity’s decadence, angst, sorrow, emptiness,… this 2012 opus contains 6 new tracks in 45 minutes of atmospheric and melancholic black metal. From an initial release of 1500 copies, the first 500 will come in a limited special edition with a cover version of Katatonia’s classic Murder as bonus track. Dantalion have efficiently provided the soundtrack for an overcast afternoon of solitude and pessimistic self reflection which, more often than not, invests the listener in shared regret. I wouldn’t go so far as to call this album ‘depressive black metal’, since the production of the guitars and drums seem too clean and professional for that sphere, the melodies too surfaced and accessible, but certainly the vocals have a coat of grime to them that wounds the soul. All in all, a successful effort, if nothing unique or transitory.
