Midnight Odyssey - Shards of Silver Fade


If you ever have 20 mins just listen to the 1st song, absolutely magical! The genre is atmospheric space black metal and theres barely anything out there that sounds as awesome as this! Worth a listen just to discover and try out a completely different genre.

Or skip to 51:35 for an awesome part of a song, the whole album every instrument etc all done by just 1 man.
