Arriving with a debut album that packed a particularly powerful psychic charge, akin perhaps to being transported into a mystical realm of haunted forests and endless winter, Pacific North Western outfit Wolves In The Throne Room made a big impact on the black metal scene and beyond ten years ago, and indeed found the ear of Southern Lord records, whose involvement brought their singular aesthetic - at once stark and grandoise, brutal yet richly atmospheric - wider recognition. The more rough-hewn charms of this debut, however, are still arguably their best - reinventing classic second-wave black metal with the widescreen sweep of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, but more commonly sounding like no-one but themselves.
