The first album is already a very good one, but the second is even better! It contains again nature black metal, quite melodic, but also wild, with some folkloristic elements, full of atmosphere and performed with passion. For me, BLACKBRAID fits well into the same category as other epic one man bands like Saor, Ruadh or Pure Wrath. Besides the catchy and quite straight opener "The Spirit returns", I mention the mightiest track "Moss covered Bones on the Altar of the Moon" as my favourite song! H.L.
From Tiohtià:Ke, with utmost support and love for the Mohawk people and all Siberian First Nations descendants! Blackbraid is easily the best Black Metal project right now, heavily underrated. Carrying a fragment of my Native Siberian ancestry, every song comes with a different story about nature and its splendor! Hah-kwa 🧡 death_raven
Spectral Wound returns with a bit more punky, black n' roll style riffage breaking through, all the while maintaining their signature raw yet well produced meloblack sound. This is an absolute headbanger of an album, with plenty of fun and catchy riffs to satiate even the most diabolical of appetites. If you were a fan of previous releases, you will not be disappointed.
