Servants of the Countercosmos

Servants Of The Countercosmos is a masterclass in riffs and has the songwriting chops to cement it as one of the year's most outright badass metal albums to boot. The occult and spacey lyrics are the icing on the cake as Wode's brilliant marriage of black metal and NWOBHM rips you to shreds and throws your lifeless corpse into the gravitational field of a collapsing star. Wode brings chaos again. Stunning guitar riffs, exceptional drumming and ear-ripping vocals build an atmosphere who transcend music through the entire album.
