SIGORSPED "Everlasting Wisdom Of The Ancients" [CD, - Jewel Case]
2025 - Black Metal from United States
Detailed Description
Ferocious Pagan Black Metal from the Depths of the American Underground. Hailing from the Order of the Broken Sword collective-alongside cult peers LURING, AZATHOTH'S DREAM, and WULDORGAST-SIGORSPED deliver their full-length debut, Everlasting Wisdom of the Ancients, a savage and unrelenting entry into the black metal underground. SIGORSPED defy expectations by avoiding folkish cliches in favour of something far more primal and punishing. Their sound recalls the violent urgency of Swedish black metal-think early Marduk or Setherial-yet it's anchored by a deeper, darker riff-driven atmosphere. Waves of hypnotic aggression crash forward, blending raw, visceral power with a sharp sense of texture and tension. Relentless yet calculated, pairing iron-clad songwriting with production that captures both chaos and clarity. The result is an immersive and forceful record that strips black metal to its bare essentials while hinting at profound spiritual depth. Fans of Arckanum, Old Wainds, and Sorcier des Glaces will find familiar shadows here, but SIGORSPED are clearly forging their own path-one that's only just beginning. An essential listen for those seeking raw, aggressive, and uncompromising pagan black metal with a forward-thinking edge.
