Yeah, they did a while ago. Schmidt and I saw them at Rites of Darkness in 2011. It was probably the most violent I've ever been up front; I ended up busting my hand open from assaulting the monitor during "Seventh Ceremony".

I need to know what you all think of this VON stuff because it is seriously blowing my mind right now.

^ Thought it was OK. The slower riffs were pretty good. Maybe I'd get more into it with a few more listens.
I love raw French black metal. Just such a unique aesthetic and sound quality.

Von was fucking ridiculous live. And not in a good way. They did absolutely nothing for me.
Love french black metal. Especially Mortifera. Vastiia Tenebrd Mortifera will always remain in my top 5 black metal albums.

I can see why. It's an extremely moving album. Any idea if Celestia is anywhere near as good?

I did not like what I heard from them years ago and never really revisited them since. Pretty bland.

What is that black metal does that gives such a feeling of nostalgia? That's the key emotion I get out of the genre...some bizarre nostalgia for a time or a place I've never even been. The combination of dissonant yet melodic notes and just enough grainy production to sound distant. Random nostalgic epiphanies. That's my thought of the day.

VON's old stuff is a masterpiece of primal, stupid black metal. This new stuff is pretty much a trashed cash-in. Von Goat, on the other hand, is pretty solid.

Here's my review of the new Aosoth. It definitely surpasses the already high expectations.

And the new Paysge d'Hiver, which is basically just another Paysage d'Hiver record. http://www.deafsparrow.com/paysage-dhiver-review-2013.html

Can you recommend bands similar to these, specifically Mortifera? I really enjoyed that song.

Excellently written review, it convinced me to check it out! There's not much from it on youtube yet unfortunately. I'll listen to some older Aosoth in the meantime!

Be sure to check out the new Imperium Dekadenz, I know KafkaX & Eligos were not particularly moved by it, but I can't stop listening to it.

I thought it was really good, nothing really different or innovative, but excellently performed and written. A very satisfying listen.

First of all check out the rest of that album, the whole thing is comperable to that first song. It's hard to say who Mortifera sounds like exactly. A lot of the riff patterns remind me of Mutiilation, expect pretty. Perhaps Nyktalgia have a similar blend of rawness and melancholia, though Nyktalgia can be prone to Burzum worship.
Thanks! Let me know what you think when you hear it for yourself.
