Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli

Another Album that spread its songs across some playlists of mine, but I actually never bought the album.
And than I wonder why... I look them up... I realize the album is already sitting in my wishlist and simply got forgotten under all the other stuff which is piling up there.
I feel a bit ashamed because Obsidian Arc is on of those album that just seem "complete" with the right amount variety... it is taking me back to the habbit of listening an album as a whole, not as its fragment.
