Avathar Ojakkala, Finland
Avathar is the name of a dark, forgotten land in the south of Aman in between the mountains and the sea in J.R.R. Tolkien's
Middle-earth. Ungoliant used to dwell there before she and Melkor destroyed the Two Trees of Valinor.
The band was a two-piece (Witch King and Scatha) until summer 2005.

As Above, So Below

It's weird, I spent a lot of time with "Devour the Sun", but for some reason, each album after, much less time was spent. Now at the end of 2023 I've been really sinking into Vvilderness' albums. They're each equally incredible works of art. At first listen, maybe one or two songs might grab me, but then after giving the full album a listen a handful of times, it gets harder to pick a favorite.

The album as a whole is great, but the title track is phenomenal--one of the best melodic metal songs I've ever heard. 和美's ethereal voice is the perfect complement to vvildr's growling vocals and masterful instrumentation. More, please!

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music.
