This might be my favourite of Heilung. They've improved a bit on their later releases but their debut is still much meaner, and darker. Maria's amazing voice obviously steals the show but I also quite like Kai's too, especially on the live performance. In fact I'd say get LIFA over this IMO.
The spoken word bits are really cool to hear proto-germanic in use but for relistening purposes they are going to be a bit obtrusive. Nevertheless the proper music here is on continual repeat for me. Rabbit

Fantastic raw black metal, fantastic in all its meanings, as it is raw black metal that could arise from Mordor itself, as it seems that our italian band is telling us the tales of JRR Tolkien in their orkish screams. Really raw, and melodic, with a really original atmosphere recreating indeed the fantastic world and especially all its dangers and horrific creatures. Great work, glad I do discover gems from reading other member's reviews, so precious !! (pun intended :) sachavonkarl74

Литоургиiа réussit l'impensable : faire entrer le black metal dans l'église orthodoxe. S'il y a une dimension dramaturgique (indissociable de tout office religieux), Литоургиiа reste profond, solennel et touche le sublime.
Après la sortie de cet album a lieu un Grand Schisme et un larcin : Христофор se fait dépouiller de son propre groupe par Барфоломей et Мартин ; tout ce qui reste ici provient de ces deux hérétiques. Suivez la procession de Батюшка ici : https://sphieratz.bandcamp.com/album/- Jordan Vauvert
