Скачать или смотреть Phaunos (Norway) — The Ancient Tales — 2024 full length

The debut of this Norwegian act.

Phaunos comes to the black metal scene with “The Ancient Tales”, their debut album. While they describe their sound as a blend of lo-fi and atmospheric black metal, the emphasis here leans heavily on the lo-fi side.
The raw production of this album creates a wonderfully grimy and organic atmosphere. Despite only containing three tracks, “The Ancient Tales" delivers a powerful dose of black metal that's both hauntingly beautiful and ferociously aggressive.
Though the album primarily resides in the mid-tempo range, this deliberate pacing intensifies the experience. The raspy vocals, pounding drums, and thick bass lines all contribute to a suffocating atmosphere. The guitar riffs, while lo-fi, exude a chilling coldness that perfectly complements the overall mood.
Whether it is the vocals, the instrumentation, or a combination of all three, Phaunos succeeds in capturing the essence of what black metal fans crave: a descent into nihilistic oblivion. The raw production enhances this journey, adding a layer of grime that perfectly complements the genre's inherent darkness.
Any fan of the genre can easily find a reason to enjoy this. Phaunos proves that lo-fi production can be a powerful tool, creating a unique and unsettling setting that perfectly complements their brand of aggressive yet not-so-strangely harmonious black metal.
