On the Shores of this Cosmic Ocean

by Stellar Descent

supported by

Brad Abar Their album Fading is amazing, you should hear that as well, I highly recommend it Favorite track: On the Shores of this Cosmic Ocean (50:00 to 75:00).

Evergreen I ended up with a demo of this album back when it was instrumental. I was amazed then. And now, with its proper release, I am even more amazed with this album. Stellar Descent is one of the most creative acts in black metal, I think.

Final Great ambient black metal, as mesmerizing as it is addictive, and with a stunning composition. While I feel the vocals could be a bit more varied, the instrumentation excels at creativity. Favorite track: On the Shores of this Cosmic Ocean (0:00 to 25:00).

Such a stellar album to start the fall. In both senses of the word. Apart from that, best incorporation of field recordings into music I've ever heard in my life. And by The Big Goose in the Sky, these drums. YomaBarr

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-

If “atmospheric black metal” implies majestic comedowns and dramatic dynamics, this powerhouse instead constitutes anti-atmospheric black metal. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 23, 2021
