Handful of Stars

Thanks for the feedback Vitya. You are correct, and I generally try to give each album its own specific genre tag rather than applying the same one to a band's entire discography. This can be seen for example on more prominent stylistic changes such as Darkthrone, Bathory or Behemoth.

Doing this for Drudkh specifically is something that I've been putting off until I eventually sit down to review their entire discography, as Drudkh has such a unique sound of their own and such a blurred musical evolution from one album to the next that I want to give it all a real good re-listen before applying the genre tag changes.

Truth is this is NOT worth owning
Compared to the rest of the albums this
Great band has released, a stylistic
Mistep perhaps.

Downfall of the Epoch is the worst offender, but all songs are overlong,
tired snoozefests of the highest order. What not to do when you're writing
shitty music? Repeat it lots of times!

This is just really bad. The songs are no good and said lack of goodness
is compounded by repetition. A dreadful, really irritating listen; the only
good bits being the fairly cool solo in "The Day Will Come" and the obvious
DBZ influence on the cover art.
