KERBENOK - O (2008)

genre : avant-garde/ pagan/ progressive black

similar bands : Enslaved, Fen, Agalloch, Deathspell Omega

origin : Germany

strong spot :performance, production, originality

weak spot : nothing too obvious

UPDATED Review: ''Kerbenok is a Black Metal Band from Germany.Their songs represent the real spirit of nature.''. This is a quote from the band's Last.fm page and I reckon it depicts accurately the songs and the atmosphere of ''O''. Complex song-structures and weird songwriting enriched by female vocals, flute and vibraphone result in an abundance of moods and a unique sound. The sound of the clean or grungy guitars and the layers between the different guitar sounds are ideal.
