Jute Gyte's ambitious third black metal album, following the acclaimed Young Eagle and Old Ways. Dense layers of lushly dissonant guitar, strange and elaborate time signatures and structures, grotesque shrieking, sorrow, futility, dread. Wandering beyond limits, clambering out on the precipice beyond which, unaided, you cannot get back.
"Trust me, you've not heard anything quite like this before, and such strange hypnosis provides one of the compelling reasons that Jute Gyte deserves further examination aloft the saturated spectrum of underground darkness... Verstiegenheit might require several exposures before it seeps into the listener's skin, but as usual, Kalmbach is not interested in accessibility, nor the cheap rewards of the easier road. This is impressive, important music, but it flits across the depths of the surreal and secret. It's not coming to you. You're going to have to chase it." -
