Raventale – Mortal Aspirations

Format: CD
Release Date: 20.11.2009
Country: Ukraine
Genre: Black Doom
New Raventale album “Mortal Aspirations” demonstrates the final of
band’s transformation from depressive black/pagan metal to black doom
metal. The music became more rigid and cold. Power guitar riffs framed
by atmospheric keyboards are able to veil the listener with the gloom of
night and take away to the world which has never been seen before.
“Mortal Aspirations” also features exclusively English lyrics which
evolve from panegyric on nature to inner feelings and emotional
experiences.
Tracklist:
1. The Fall Of The Mortal Aspirations
2. Cosmos Inside
3. My Birds Of Misfortune
4. A Fading Scent Of Cinnamon And Naked
5. Watching A Luna Becomes Thy Face
6. The Silhouette Of Despair
7. Escape To The Stars
8. Suicide As The Destined End
9. A Ravens Fade

Here we go, guyz.
New Raventale is out now. You can purchase it here http://www.solitudestore.com/en/product/raventale-2010-after/

The forth album of the famous Ukranian project Raventale demonstrates artistic evolution of its only member hidden beneath Astaroth name. On the one hand the new work named “After” continues the tendencies of the previous album with its mood and concept; on the other hand this is a standing alone masterpiece progressing from black/doom metal style to depressive black realm. The ideas behind this album demonstrate author’s thoughts about eternity and its decay, about the cyclic nature of life and being, about the destruction of this reincarnation cycle by the nature itself. Without any doubt the album can be treated as the best album of Raventale that has been ever created. The gold-plated CD with pit-art comes with a booklet printed on a golden paper which makes “After” a must-have item for your music collection and an outstanding present for any adept of the genre.

13 years after the thread was created, I finally bought Raventale's debut, On a Crystal Wing, for $5. I hope it's as good as you guys hyped back in the day

Speaking of Drudkh-a-likes, these Danes really earned themselves my weekly one-click buy

Previous release is good too

13 years later I have now listened to one song from the debut.

It is pretty good. I hear ravens inside the guitar speaker cabs.
