The massively atmospheric black metal-debut by Nargaroth, 1999.

While the album Herbstleyd takes much influence from the likes of Burzum and early Satyricon, there is distinct East German ethic being played out on here. Something about war ravished lands and with the howls of wolves to lay waste on the road to ruin as heard on the track Des Alten Kriegers Seelenruh inspired this hunch. Herbstleyd is a misanthropic saga that shuns all hope for the light of being. The horrors of war and the victors of its spoil will ultimately be the wolves that encircle ne’er.

This is medieval black metal like few others have created!
