Ward of Roses wraps so many different things neatly into its palm, and it maintains its level of interest and intrigue from front to back with how well all of these different elements mix together. The vocal performances from both singers are utterly superb, and the instrumental performances are so damn tight.
These songs are composed with perfection in mind, despite drawing from the messy rawness of traditional black metal.

an album to give a jolt of life to what’s left of these dreary November days
an album to get lost in with its echoing soundscapes laden with flaring visions of traipsing through ochre-hued wastelands.
