Evoking Winds Unleashes Raw Power and Folklore in “Bald Mountain”

Evoking Wind

Evoking Winds has struck again with their latest metal-rock single, “Bald Mountain.” This relentless onslaught of sound takes listeners on a dark journey through the realms of European folklore, immersing them in a storm of lousy blast beats, extreme vocals, and cinematic melodies.

The song “Bald Mountain” is an excellent example of the raw power and intensity that metal fans seek. From the beginning, the thunderous riffs and bone-shaking drums create a sonic landscape that demands attention. The guttural vocals add aggression and emotion, making the song even more intense.

Evoking Winds is an international metal project based in Minsk, Belarus, that unites gifted musicians from around the globe. Their music combines various genres, such as melodic black metal, folk, cinematic orchestral music, dungeon synth, and atmospheric black metal, to create a unique sound. They stand out from others by incorporating folk instruments and flexible song structures, resulting in a more profound and impressive metal style.

It’s worth noting that Evoking Winds remains a non-commercial project, with all their music licensed for free distribution. This commitment to sharing their art with the world adds an authentic and genuine touch to their music.

Album Review

Paul Terry, Aptøsrs & Cellarscape unite on bold new album “Alternative Piano Club”

Combining his three artistic alter egos, Paul Terry presents an awe-inspiring new 12-track album, “Alternative Piano Club,” written in collaboration with Aptøsrs and Cellarscape. This is an album-length voyage of music that blends acoustic, rock, and piano-driven cinematic sounds.

Torn between this complex emotional spectrum, all the while the piano remains at its core throughout. Paul Terry opens his “Memento Mori (Chromogenic Phase)” contemplatively, creating a solemn, reflective mood. Cellarscape’s “Three Years Of Roses is warmer, whereas Aptøsrs’ “Questionnaires is much more textured as a large, sculptural post-rock.

“Dave’s Theme,” written by Paul Terry, musically expands the narrative with a touch of cinematic elevation that aligns well. “We Shape The Clouds” by Cellarscape is fluffy and heart-warming, “Writers Behind The Curtain” is somber, more narrative. We are all together in “A Place We Made,” an honest, intimate, emotionally grounded space.

The project contains vocal warmth and cultural depth in the song “This Is My Home by Silas Miami & Lana Crowster. Proceeding in a totally different direction is the stronger emotional clarity of Paul Terry’s acoustic storytelling on “Any Time You Want To Fly” and “No Sleep Has Come.” Cellarscape presents a wide, spacious atmospheric moment in “Cygnus,” while Aptøsrs ends with “Rust Mountain (Monochrome Piano Version),” a simple gem that brings the project full circle.

The mixing of Sam Okell and Adam Noble, the mastering of Alex Wharton and Robin Schmidt have, in many ways, brought their polish to it while still making it feel human. “Alternative Piano Club” is a work entity, where three musical personalities met and talk mind in the same emotional language.
