“Wall of Swords” originally by Commander.
“First I listened to his 2022 album, and I'm impressed at how good this earlier one is, when even now this is a very new project. Yes it sounds kinda DIY, but sometimes I'm in the mood for that anyway. Sometimes getting a little blackgazey, and intriguing throughout. Starer has grown and experimented very well.” 90/100

“The first two track atmospheric black metal while the latter has a few folkish elements, the synths are quite heavy but still not too obfuscating with quite nice songwriting.
The third is a raw black metal song, it starts as a dungeon synth and even in the harshest parts keeps the synth presence. As the melody further progresses it turns into an atmospheric death song, this is a cover of Josh’s band also which is a progressive band.
The fourth is a cover of a defunct Josh’s band, maybe this one might be symphonic black, since it seems to be strongly driven by synths.
The last three tracks are post black metal , post rock and post black again.
So despite being an all terrain metal record, it in fact shows great creativity and many possible paths that can be covered in the future.”
