/Glam rock, Dark pop, Dark wave, Alternative, Lo-fi, DIY, Neoclassical/

Comment
: it is said that Annorkoth is an atmospheric depressive black metal band from Podolsk, Russia. But wait for a moment! This EP of 24 minutes spreading out over 7 tracks chimes at least like a light-weighted or steam-rolled version of brutal metal. Indeed, it is murky, at times embellished with martial-induced paces and sometimes offering up slightly bleak visions (as similar as the coverprint of it used to be) but on the other side it is conducted by the melancholic drops of piano chords, fast tempo progressions and breezy structural dodges. Altogether, it seems more restraint glam than black or more dark wave than black metal. And it is absolutely the sort of instrumental music.
