English translation:
The Belarusian Imsar is not a very well-known and recognized band, it rather operates in its niche and only those who know the subject know and listen to it. This year, Werewolf Promotion released the group's third album. What can I say, Imsar can safely be considered one of the best examples of Slavic, pagan black metal and what this style represents in terms of both lyrics and music. Of course, there are also small folk elements here, it could not be missing, but they are only an ornament to the leading intense, typical for black metal, but melodious, guitar parts and a crushing rhythm section. The compositions here also have a bit of epicness and pathos similar to Bathory and Graveland. There are choirs in the background and those characteristic thunder-like drums that were once shown on the album "Hammerhart". You know what' I'm talking about. And in terms of vocals, we have here not only black metal, sinister sounds, but parts sung with a clear voice with a slight hint of melody as well, which in turn reminded me of the Russian Arkona. In summary, there is a lot to listen to and, as I mentioned, you will find here everything that is the best in this genre. It is also worth mentioning the very atmospheric graphic design of the album. Wędrujący Wiatr also uses very similar aesthetics, but there we have accents mainly related to nature, while on "Ciemra Pierad Zołkam" we have elements related to history and mythology, dark accents also appear here. I associate it with the old Russian historical cinema and fairy tales which are screen adaptations of Slavic legends and myths. It harmonizes perfectly with the music of Imsar and adds a lot to the atmosphere of the album. It is worth checking this material. This is only the second or third new release from this year that I am writing about and so far the most interesting.
