Nächtlich (Canada) - Exaltation of Evil (Album 2024)

Three years after the highly celebrated "S.S.I.E.", which saw the band catapulted into newer heights of morbid ecstasy and praise by acolytes of the real and unhinged essence of Black Metal, Nächtlich delivered their third full-length opus, and the first as a 5-piece band, which is composed by their live lineup in recent public rituals.
Soaring through the nocturnal skies and exulting under the unstoppable triumph of a sound that shall not be subversed nor uttered by trend-hopping maggots, the ever aptly titled "Exaltation of Evil" further develops on the sound that has been carved unto flesh by its predecessor.
Blending in the darkened woodland Black Metal sound from 90's German BM, with the rotting, foul and bilious aura of projects such as Mysteries, Vlad Tepes, Belkètre with a huge Punk edge to it, not just sonically but in spirit and attitude, utterly expelling instragram yuppies and self-appointed pseudo-underground wankers unto the peat-flooded catacombs to rot in eternity.
The songwriting here however is much more explored and varied that in "S.S.I.E.", an aspect for which the 5-piece lineup probably contributed too, with great use of Ambient interludes and outros to set the atmopshere under the murderous gaze of the howling wolves, and with a stronger addition of elements of 80's horned Heavy Metal, particularly in tracks like "Pagan Victory" and "Starsight of the Outer Regions", which further the value of the impetuous riff palette portrayed by the band, and even Krautrock enhancing their austere and infernal ritualism in true exaltation of evil.
