FLUISTERWOUD
Laat Alle Hoop Varen
(Ván Records)
27:26min

Black Metal is music without compromises and doubtless far away from any kind of trend (about this point there is nowadays plenty room for discussion). If you search for a band which created their music based on these basic facts the Dutch combo FLUISTERWOUD and their final release “Laat Alle Hoop Varen” is more than the right choice. The band invites every fan with the friendly words “We will fuck you in the grave” and the music is like their warm invitation – raw and evil; 111% true but still to some degree melodic. The Norwegian armada of true Black Metal bands has for sure inspired them and the influences raging from DARKTHRONE to TULUS / KHOLD up to our dear fetish friends from CARPATHIAN FOREST. Maybe the album – which was recorded in 2006 and nearly disappeared into oblivion – will not win an innovation price but I have to admit that “Laat Alle Hoop Varen” is a good Black Metal album which will not disappoint any die hard fan. So the choice is up to you to join this small and intimate grave party. www.fluisterwoud.nl, www.van-gbr.de
