II: A Material God

by Wesenwille

Ippocalyptica A Material God is more of everything that Wesenwille offered on its already-impressive debut effort, but the most endearing aspect of this album is that the band is finding its own voice. This is no longer an “homage” to Deathspell Omega, but a fully-realised dissonant black métal statement in its own right. Wesenwille is drawing outside of the lines here, and the result is more than solid. At this rate of growth, there is no telling what wondrous works will come our way!

Cemnarion A big step up from the already impressive debut, A Material God boasts a metric ****ton of riffs that keep you on your toes, a dizzying swirl of dissonance, relentlessly pummeling drums and a venomous vocal delivery. Favorite track: The Introversion of Sacrifice.

Dementicus Very good new effort from these local dudes. Ominous black metal with sharp riffing. Well done!

SEBASTIEN COTE I: Wesenwille was quite a nice surprise when a friend sent me the bandcamp link. I ended up listening a lot to this one. But first listens of II: A material god is even more satisfying as the album grooves more and experiments further than the first one. Definitely worth the attention of anyone into dissonant black and music that challenges the listener.

YomaBarr O lunacy, o howl! Thanks, Wesenwille!

about

II: A Material God brings a strong mix of unrelenting and dissonant black metal with ample room for groove, atmosphere and experimentation. Compared to the debut I: WESENWILLE, everything has been taken a notch further. Aggressive bursts are even more unrelenting, and atmospheric passages have been given more room to develop. With the incorporation of even more diverse musical influences, this record truly shows what WESENWILLE is capable of delivering. This time around full production was in the hands of JB van der Wal, whose signature sound is unmistakably heard on II: A Material God.

The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel. Metallurgical Fire

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrming

supported by 42 fans who also own “II: A Material God”

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann

Algleymi
by Misþyrming

supported by 42 fans who also own “II: A Material God”

Tout est une question de perspective. En regardant la pochette d'Algleymi, on se dira : "c'est un constat d'échec de l'humanité face aux puissances cosmiques". Mais le gigantisme de cette silhouette est un signe que Misþyrming veut plutôt s'emparer de cette puissance et le black metal le confirmera très vite. Il est plus maîtrisé, massif et épique. Si le chant est déjà impressionnant, dégageant plus de haine, les guitares sont de leur côté absolument monumentales. Un chef-d'œuvre du genre ! Jordan Vauvert
