Finally, fifteen years after being recorded, Wampyrinacht’s full length debut has been unleashed upon the world. Traditional eerie Hellenic black metal to interspersed moments of neoclassical shred, Wampyrinacht have really recorded something special and, at least to my ears, unique. The atmosphere is tremendously Greek in the best of ways despite the regular tempo and sometimes even style shifts within a song, with a funeral dirge sometimes shifting to a keyboard-laden section of gloom to more neoclassicism to black metal again in a single stupendous long piece.

Past the songwriting itself, some other things that deserve mention are Necrolord’s fantastic vocals and the solid production that gives the whole mix room to breathe without sounding too clean for comfort. Classic Hellenic sounding stuff is one of the best sorts of black metal, and it’s great to hear the see the Greek scene is alive and well!
