Nymphrenia (DSBM/Post Black Metal)
Where Nymphrenia stands out for me is her vocals. Black metal vocals often feel very utilitarian for me. They’re there, but if I really notice the vocals, it’s usually not for a good reason. Her voice carries anguish in a way I haven’t often heard before. The recording sounds both loud and distant, as if you’re hearing someone scream crying uncontrollably next door, almost voyeuristically observing their torment. [1/2]
