THE AWAKENING
The Age Of Storm

So here you have the missing review of the great bands I happened to experience live some time ago supporting NAGELFAR and OF TREES AND ORCHIDS (now INGURGITATING OBLIVION), namely the aforementioned bands, DAEMONS EMBRACE and HIDDEN IN THE FOG. Optically, the face painting of their singer was very original: white with red “scratches” over the face, just as if some evil Demon (or his girlfriend) had attacked him. Some of you might know their song ‘North (Unite The Clans)’ from the Eternity-sampler #18. What you get is a good mixture of aggressive and pagan / melodic Black Metal on a fairly high level. They don’t quite reach the quality of some other Oldenburgian / East Frisian extreme Metal acts, especially the song writing still lacks some fluency, but they’re talented and now as their line-up problems are hopefully solved, they will enter the studio probably by the beginning of 2002. So I’m curious about that new material. Until then: check out THE AWAKENING and the other bands I mentioned earlier on. I’m pretty sure you won’t regret it! www.theawakeing.de
