GOATMOON / DEAD REPTILE SHRINE - 'Winterforest' CD (Bestial Burst)
Split release between two Finnish acts. Goatmoon steal the show with their 25-minute title track. Epic, Satanic Black Metal with elements of melody and atmospheres with plenty of anthemic guitars, eerie piano and howling wind. Goatmoon never let the overall quality level drop. DRS contributes 5 tracks of weird and wonderful melancholic Black Metal, more understated and less bombastic than Goatmoon, but as memorable in a low-key sort of way.
