Today, Iron Bonehead Productions sets November 14th as the international release date for the highly anticipated second album of America's Storming, Celestial Clear Moonlit, on CD and vinyl LP formats.
Continuing their crusade to shine a (black)light on ancient-minded black metal from American shores, Iron Bonehead makes a bloodpact with Storming for the band's second full-length, Celestial Clear Moonlit. The work of one solitary Ratatosk, Storming's black metal is at least a couple decades behind the times, and proudly so. With a vintage shredded guitar tone betraying deft twists of texture, vocals that range grim-yet-expressive to choral-yet-distant, and synths that are indeed celestial and moonlit, subtly circulating like funeral fog, the four epic-length tracks (plus short & no-less-shredded instrumental) that comprise Celestial Clear Moonlit effortlessly transport the listener to forgotten realms.
Storming's song constructions are simple and yet elongated, making for maximal mesmerization; deceptively streamlined on the surface, those raw rudiments are hypnotically layered for shimmering effect. Thoughts of classic Moonblood and Isengard - and even Belketre and Vlad Tepes, both at their most measured, or Warloghe during their demo era - crop up often during the duration of Celestial Clear Moonlit, but instead of instilling a sense of deja vu, the sum atmosphere arrives at a parallel place; black metal this ancient can only come a heart burning with authenticity. Wide-open wanderlust, rustic aura, modernity rejected: behold Storming's Celestial Clear Moonlit!
