Eye of Shepherdess (US) - S/T (Album 2019)

The extraordinary and extremely elusive debut album from Eye of Shepherdess, the new incarnation of the legendary underground dweller, Batilda. Self-released to tape in 2019 and very scarcely distributed, this album was also announced to be pressed on wax via Archaic Memories, which was either cancelled or is yet to happen, however certainly deserves it. An extraordinary piece of nobel and majestic Raw Black Metal, this record might just be the magnum opus of the Batilda entity. A brilliant step forward in the projects delirious and frantic riffage, brimming with ecstatic melodies calling for both blood and magic, Eye of Shepherdess self-titled is absolutely one of the best releases to have come out of the Atavistic Insurgence hotbed. Almost unbelievably beautiful with all its ferociousness, this record is definitely a culmination of the hallucinatory fantasy world created by some of the best acts of early 2010’s Raw Black Metal, in league with acts like Cirrhus or Grizelda. Carrying a somber melancholia, that is not just nostalgic as it is triumphant and gleaming, this 6 hexes have and surely will be the culprit of many haunted nights.
