I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-
Violet Cold et l'originalité, ce sont deux entités indissociables. Anomie — le nom est si bien choisi ! — bouscule les codes. Il bouscule les codes du black metal : d'une tragique mélancolie, certes, mais une ouverture poétique grâce aux instruments traditionnels ("Anomie" et "Violet Girl"). Mais il bouscule aussi les codes sociaux : les femmes sont à l'honneur. Si Violet Cold est au chant, ce sont les femmes qui assurent la narration et donc la structure de l'album. Le résultat est touchant. Jordan Vauvert

To me this is DSBM at it's best. calming, emotion filled riffs, vocals are a perfect blend between heart wrenching and eerie, and last but not least, the ATMOSPHERE. One of my absolute favorites for this sub genre The Laughing Stock
