WINDS - PROMINENCE AND DEMISE (2007)

genre : progressive, symhonic , avant-garde metal
similar bands : Katatonia, Arcturus, Opeth, Anathema, Leprous
origin : Norway
strong spot : performance, songwriting
weak spot : -

Winds is one of the side projects of Hellhammer (Mayhem). They have released a series of original and inspired avant-garde metal albums that oddly enough never made them famous in the metal scene. Melancholic melodies, distorted and acoustic guitars, a small string orchestra and a really expressive vocalist are the ingredients of an album that is perfect company for rainy moody days. I believe that this one is their most complete album.
