Seven Oracles, by Nexion

Seven Oracles

by Nexion

supported by

Ben Harris An excellent black metal album with a very imaginative and intriguing theme. Having read the albums description on Avantgarde Music's bandcamp page, I think Nexion have done a stellar job of capturing that, at-turns, fearful and despairing tone that I'd imagine would flood a persons mind when seeking forbidden godless knowledge from a seven headed harbinger of entropy. Favorite track: Divine Wind and Holocaust Clouds.

Ippocalyptica I thought that Nexion’s debut EP was pretty good, but they really bring it on Seven Oracles! Big points to them for being one of the few Icelandic extreme metal bands to not sound overly influenced by those French black metal gods whose DNA is clearly heard and felt in most of Iceland’s output. Even compared to fellow Icelanders (many of whom I count among my favourite bands), though. Nexion manage to sound fresh to these ears, being a bit less dark and esoteric than several peers. Buy this! Favorite track: The Spirit of Black Breath.

YomaBarr Money's getting tight due to no job due to the virus (and yeah due to all this brilliant music that comes out this year) so I held tight but if stuff does things to your solar plexus... hell, who needs food after all.
Nexion take threads from various masters of the genre (and please folks let's not talk about DsO, OK?) and weave them into their own multifaceted, multilayered fabric. 100% original? No. Essential listen? Absolutely. Congrats on the debut, Nexion. Would love to see you live.

Algleymi
by Misþyrming

supported by 38 fans who also own “Seven Oracles”

Tout est une question de perspective. En regardant la pochette d'Algleymi, on se dira : "c'est un constat d'échec de l'humanité face aux puissances cosmiques". Mais le gigantisme de cette silhouette est un signe que Misþyrming veut plutôt s'emparer de cette puissance et le black metal le confirmera très vite. Il est plus maîtrisé, massif et épique. Si le chant est déjà impressionnant, dégageant plus de haine, les guitares sont de leur côté absolument monumentales. Un chef-d'œuvre du genre ! Jordan Vauvert
