I'm posting this on behalf of the excellent German band Azaxul, which happens to be a side project of the man responsible for the infamous Moonblood. This album is a split between Azaxul from Germany and S.V.E.S.T. from France, SVEST plays some top notch black metal as well but in terms of my intention, I'm writing about "Night Tale" because of how that song has seemingly increased its nostalgic quality as time progressed. Night Tale is very consistent and inspired black metal of an epic and has somewhat of a trance like quality to it, but in that respect both bands manage to pull this off on this particular split. The vocals for Azaxul convey the original spirit, I think, to the early days of black metal and do so in a very engaging and authentic way. There's not much else to say about this album except get it, it's a short album of just two songs but will be quite worth your time, as it has stood the test of time for me so it shall for others.
