I usually don’t lump two albums together in one review, but I will make an exception for STRIBORG. I honestly don’t know what to think of this. musically I will describe this as ambient black metal but as that doesn’t really tell you much about what it really sounds like I will say this much; imagine that you are put in the woods and all of a sudden hear a faint sound I the distant. You can’t really make out if it is synth or guitar or both but you get a feeling in your gut that this could be good. That is how I feel about STRIBORG. It lurks in the background, too shy to step out. It is like an alluring troll in the woods. It lures you into its net. Anders Ekdahl
