Circle of Ouroborus (Finland) - Autuala (Album 2022)

Another tremendous record of ethereal, melancholic Black Metal bliss, from the Elemental Cavern duo.
Arriving only a few months after their latest full-length, and released simultaneously to a new album on Final Agony, "Atualua" sees a return to their brilliant shoegazing style of black arts, mostly on the same page as "Viimeinen Juoksu" and "Vanging Laulu", although with some higher focus on Post-Punk elements similarly to their record earlier this year or their mid-era in records like "Unituli". There's also a few moments of more old school Black Metal influence in here, as well as some great use of dreamy synthesizers.
Anorher, always welcomed piece of introspective, spiritual art from one of the best and most boundary-pushing bands the genre has seen this century.
Released on digital via His Wounds, LP to follow soon.

These guys are absolutely ridiculous. How the hell do they pump out so much material and somehow manage to make it good as hell? They are incredible......easily top 5 bands of all time for me.

[@SirShadeSquamous]

Agreed, fucking legends.

[@laurentschroeder-lebec5933]

I listened to this earlier today and couldn't believe how potent and focused it all felt ... like a perfect synergy of all their recent elements, as you so well describe above. What a band.

[@katialafist]

Never stop the madness, please.
Incredible album by an incredible band.

Moonflares threw me over the edge in a metaphysical blisss one night years ago... ive acheived a similar result with this album.

[@pestesoidubutor8626]

One more gem on Circle of Ouroborus' crown. Still on top of their game, of black metal's quirky aristocracy, and one of the best bands to have ever existed. That is music to contemplate the abyss to.

[@forgotten-1]

Another great release Thank you for the content.

[@JoshBM1981]

Memorizing stuff! 🤟🔥

[@mikkasscar]

The maestros deliver yet once again, this album sounds like Circle of Ouruborus from the first notes, yet it adds yet another layer in their already impressive discography. More keyboards that add to the atmosphere and captivating melodies that no other band than CoO is able to write. Album of the year and there is still another CoO album coming...

[@ritesofpestilence]

I guess you're probably talking about Thurisa. That album is out already. Actually posted it in its entirety few days ago.
And definitely agree with your words

[@eyeseayew189]

Absolute and superb!

[@Mark-kz5fs]

I'm glad COO is still around, I like the straight forward approach.

[@leodestro3841]

[@veraluciapintorios5740]

Maravilhoso!!!

[@extremeanalogmusic6296]

the melodies are incredible.

[@sculpture151]

I keep coming back. You were warned.

[@welwitschia]

Amazing as always, but somehow I'm feeling it less than previous releases. I dunno, it feels... less weird?

[@vincentcousin5784]

La pochette va en laisser plus d'un sur le carreau . Peu importe le flacon... comme dirait l'autre...

[@John-yc8sf]

В лучших традициях жанра, охуенно!
