Ippocalyptica Hail to one of the fastest-rising and brightest stars in melodic black metal! Moonlight Sorcery’s last EP caught my attention, but it is with In Coldest Embrace that we are blessed with their purest mission statement to date. These blokes exude joy as is evident with every note they play, but they are absolutely professional and highly-skilled, as seen in how well they pulled off Burn. They could have played this faster and harder than DP ever did, but they chose restraint. A band to watch!

bmurator Melodic Black Metal from Finland. This combines my love for guitarists growing up with BM. It sounds like a glorious combination of Yngwie playing BM with fantastic melodies. Plus the revisiting of the classic "Burn" is awsome as well. I feel like I *need* that new album yesterday... :) Highly recommended!!! Favorite track: In Coldest Embrace.

David Fischer I absolutely adore both of this band's EPs, so I gladly threw my money at Moonlight Sorcery to support them in creating their full-length album. While In Coldest Embrace is one hell of a ride, the real banger track is the Deep Purple worship: as if that song would not be good enough already, the Finns gave this timeless classic the proper melodic black metal makeover it deserves. I didn't know I wanted this, but obviously Moonlight Sorcery did. One of the most fun songs of 2023! Favorite track: Burn.

In cold embrace The night eye Carried my flame Far beyond sky With coldest of light The star of my Eternity shines Far beyond Silver dagger, Silver flesh, My child of mercury Your time has come to Finally rise Revealing all the faces of the night In places of Silent worship In temples of Glacial shadows In shrines of old In frost and cold Tombs lay still in Woods forlorn

about

Moonlight Sorcery Tampere, Finland

Moonlight Sorcery's black metal is a symphonic and melodic variety by nature.The trump card of Moonlight Sorcery is the solos that touch the sky, the majestic melody and the epic grip on the music. Together, these create a strong and gloomy, perhaps even medieval, atmosphere. The band has a huge palette of influences, which is directly reflected in the versatility of the song material. ... more
