Synopsis

Album Description

Post-Burzum, pre-Leviathan, most thought there was only Judas Iscariot until Moribund resuscitated modern extreme Black Metal... BUT THEY WERE WRONG!!! Wanderings is a dismal exploration into one of the most eerie and depressive Black Metal creations ever to emerge from the US or the world. Now dredged from the Moribund Archives, created in 1996 and utterly untouched by the masses...

CD Reviews

Doomy minor key slow motion black metal miserabilism

Aquarius Records | San Francisco | 11/02/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Originally released in 1996, this slab of suicidal blackness finally gets unearthed and resurrected by the doomed souls at Moribund. I shalt Become inhabit a completely bleak and barren world of abject misery. A doomy minor key slow motion black metal miserabilism. There's Burzum worship, and then there's taking your Burzum worship to an even more anguished and desolate, wretched and forlorn extreme. Think Xasthur, Burzum, Krohm, Make A Change... Kill Yourself, but then imagine those bands even more despondent, more hopeless, recording with razor blade inches from exposed wrist. A gorgeously bleak and buzzy expanse of minor key arpeggiated guitars, draped like black cloth over thick swirls of monochrome buzz. Riffs are looped and repeated, melodies become murky mantras and the vocals are so distorted and buried in the mix they just sound like whispery squalls of static. So mournful and melancholy. Wanderings is often so slow and fuzzy, so dreamlike that it almost ceases being metal, and becomes some abstract experimental drone music, an ambient soundscape of reverb drenched guitars, a loping black doom waltz, so godd-mn sad sounding and so so beautiful."
