Black Sea - Somethings Cannot Be Mirrored (2010)



Post-metal from Brazil and once again, Black Sea
have produced a monument to heaviness.

The Cult of Luna seem to be quiet at the moment
and it has been up to bands like Mouth of the Architects,
Kongh or General Lee to set the standards.

But now, emerging as genuine contenders, Black Sea
(and Alaskan) are producing great works that I rate
up there with the big boys. Just as post-metal seems
to becoming stagnant or songs are produced with a
template that consists of loud/quiet, this has enough
small flourishes to stand out as something a bit
different.

If you have any interest in any of the above bands,
give this a - Listen.
