SEVENTH GENOCIDE 'Toward Akina' DIGI CD

Over the black-metal roots of the style, Seventh Genocide have found their own voice and took the definition of "post-black metal" to a brand new level. Forget dissonances, forget shoegaze. If Pink Floyd could have played black metal, there is a huge possibility that their sound could have been not so far from what these Italians have to offer.  With a certain level of psychedelia mixed with a classic black metal approach of pure North European origins (early Hades, Isvind, Windir, early-Taake), Seventh Genocide are able to shift from blast-beat driven moments to pure evocative fragments of outstanding emotional beauty.
