ATER – VILLIGHIED ( Review by Varg The Mighty )

Today’s review is of Belgian Black Metal band Ater’s EP “Villighied”.

These 5 tracks are raw and uncompromised Black Metal at its most old-school purity, with sort of catchy riffs of continuous tremolo picking, typical vocals and a bad recording, this is a really common yet enjoyable EP.

There is also some early Burzum feeling to some songs, like in “Valkennacht” or “Oes Vorvoadern Vochten” that adds some different concepts and makes the release more diverse. You shouldn’t really put this on expecting anything new, only if you love raw and unholy Black Metal. All these songs have some interesting feeling to them that create some nice atmosphere evading all sorts of innovation.

I recommend this to fans of Unholy Black Metal. My rating is of 8,5/10.
