Review

With three tracks and over 40 minutes of music, you know this is going to be some kind of extreme. A one-man band from France, Netherdom plays long, murky songs that still manages to have a good deal of melody worked into them. The production is intentionally subterranean, with a muffled effect like the old days of the second wave, the vocals so buried in the mix they are mostly inaudible. These songs go on a long time, and halfway through it is pretty plain they go on too long, and didn't have to, but the arcane, underground atmosphere is definitely a real feature of this, and if it was more focused it would not have as much of that. I like this, but it's for underground Black Metal fans only.
