My Tomb


Saatkrähe is a rather unheard of black metal band from France, "My Tomb" is considered as their first promo, and is an excellent one at that. The production quality on this demo is what sold me originally, it has that lo-fi brilliance that I have come to love within the black metal underground, everything sounding so fuzzy and distant it develops a certain sense of depth. Lyrical themes range from death, darkness, and Transylvania... perhaps typical to the uninitiated, but I assure you this album holds its own. I would recommend highlight tracks just now, but in reality I enjoy all four tracks nearly equally on this demo, it's just that goddamn good. When Crows are Croaking, however, really fucking gets to me for some reason and I find myself going back to that track a lot as of recently... there is some real anguish to be shared here. For fans of true and obscure French black metal.
