Striborg is one of my favorite black metal projects out there today, hailing from Tasmania is a man that goes by Sin Nanna, he's been making black metal under the name Striborg since 1997. It's about damn time that I introduced this blog to Spiritual Catharsis, it's albums like this that are the true reason behind the creation of this page, this has been an old stand by for many years now and still holds that distinctively blackened aura that is Striborg. Some people who enjoy black metal hate Striborg, I don't really know or care why, the fact is Striborg is one of the oddest yet most innovative and creative one man projects and is able to capture and allure at the same time. Lyrically obsessed with ghosts, the forest, misanthropy, melancholy, magick, the moon, night... Sin Nanna creates spectral black metal in the darkest and most haunted of Tasmanian woodlands. Striborg has a huge discography, an expansive one that keeps expanding, Sin Nanna is one of those artists that just loves to continually record new demos as time progresses, there are a handful in there that I listen to all of the time. The reason I am posting Spiritual Catharsis is because of the memories I have attached to this album, as well as the overall aesthetic reached while listening to this album, it's the epitome of what I enjoy.
