The debut finally available again on the LP-format!

The minute the opener Turin Son of Hurin starts playing everybody who has heard epic black metal before will recognize that Emyn Muil, in many ways, is almost a dead ringer for Summoning. The steady beating war drums, guitars distorted beyond recognition to create textured underlying fabric, epic keys providing melodies floating over the top, the voice, barely human, hissing imperceptible lyrics – you know the template. The description provided can serve to describe many a track on Turin Turambar Dagnir Glaurunga, with some songs like Gurthang being more instrumental barebones, and others, like Death of Glaurung, more monumental, dressed up and intense. Emyn Muil does a good job transitioning from pompous to serene (Arise in Gondolin) and provides a number of interesting arrangements around a central connecting melody in Arise in Gondolin, Path of the Doomed and Dark Riots from Angband. The latter cut clearly borrows its main melody from a well-known Russian folk song.

Limited edition of 199 copies on yellow/black swirl vinyl with red splatter. Comes in gatefold cover, incl. printed innersleeve, 2-sided A2 poster, logo sticker & download.
