Forsth
Winterfrost
[Last Epitaph]


What to say about this? I don't really know, it's hard to review an album that doesn't really do anything for you, one way or the other. It isn't that Forsth have delivered a bad album, nor a good one, it's just an album that leaves you devoid of anything, when listening to it. I can't say that I hate it, somehow I wish I could, as it would be better than this utter meaningless piece of plastic. It's aesthetically black metal with some mild use of keyboards, and while they run through the motions fairly well, and recreate the aesthetic nearly flawless, there just doesn't appear to be anything behind it, but to those life loving treehuggers involved with black metal these days, who care nothing about any thoughts behind it, it is as good as anything else, and it even has a neat little picture of a forest on the cover.
