GRIFT Västra Götaland County, Sweden
Grift’s ambition is to evoke the mood some people are in great need of; the mood you can’t express through other mediums than music, images, and in some cases even through words.

Ofte jeg drømmer mig død
by AFSKY
supported by 10 fans who also own “Silverne stig (Silver pathway)”
I never jumped on the train in 2020, even though I should have based on what Afsky brings to the table (that characteristic Danish BM combination of melancholy and triumph), but I came across it again now and have seen the light. This is a lot less epic and urgent-sounding than most comparable Scandinavian works if you take it song by song, but that is the point: this is a mesmerising experience as an album, each minute building upon the previous, leading to a devastating overall impact.

Another one of those bands whose music is impossible to fit under a simple label or tag, as it's a masterful blend of so many styles with lots of emotions. A bit like "An Abstract Illusion", one of those unique blends, folk, depressive, second wave, and atmospheric black metal styles into an exploratory whole, "the sum greater than its elements combined" kind of art... but it's the end result that counts, and I really liked it. Took a few listens and open-mindedness though.
