Solid American pagan black metal. Honestly one of the best things I've stumbled upon lately.
The atmosphere is killer, and the lyrics lean hard into old-school folklore.

If anyone's looking for something new, here's a link. Check out three tracks from their album for eternal glory and honor.

The vocals are honestly pretty rough, and there’s just way too much cheesy keyboard work for my taste... definitely not my kind of black metal...🙂

So, I’ve been hearing this funny little rumor lately—apparently, some dedicated fan follows a certain guy from the band to IEEE shows whenever they play. The kicker? They basically act like a personal bodyguard just to make sure he doesn't catch a cold, since he always performs with that intense, "warrior" vibe—shirtless and all! 😂

May the strength of Zeus's fire warm your very heart,
Where the pagan fury of wolf and falcon resides,
The dawn of pride and glory shall rise once more,
As the White race marches toward Heaven, with an honorable spirit.

Ugh... just more Nazi whiners. 😍 It’s honestly such a shame this kind of band didn't exist a few years back—back when I was actually wasting my time listening to total garbage like that. 😢

There used to be an American black metal band around here, but I can't recall the name... they played about five or six years ago at some metal festival out in Austin.
Anyway, I actually tried throwing a bottle at their singer once, but unfortunately, I missed. 😬

😕

I honestly suspect that those folks from the river Gorthaur's were being hailed as true patriots—you know, the real backbone of the nation—but if you look closely, their whole origin story is a bit questionable. I mean, wouldn't you agree? If they weren't essentially let loose by the local sheriff out of the swamp just a few years ago, they probably never would have even made it through a single storm of haters. 😬

I think those guys were from Chicago...

But I clearly remember this black metal band from overseas playing at a venue in Philly too. They were one of the first bands from that side of the border to play here after the war. The singer was a total alcoholic wreck, just screaming insults at everyone, while the heavy metal crowd—acting like real tough guys—just quietly bailed on the show in droves. 🤣

I think this all probably happened before I ever started getting into all that heavy metal stuff—I mean, I’d honestly never heard any of those stories back then.

Yeah, definitely. Way before 🙈

Noah Myers67 said:I didn't bother listening to the tracks, so I won't comment on them. But based on the song titles alone—typical for bands like this—it doesn't look promising.
The freezing winds die down... fire in the eye of the wolf. 🤣

Judging a song by its title is just as stupid as judging a book by its cover. 😉
Aeolus is widely considered one of the best American black metal bands out there, right up there with Death of folk. Most of these comments are just completely out of line. I get that certain things aren't everyone's cup of tea, but this is nothing more than pure prejudice. It’s pretty stupid to hold such narrow views—and honestly, that applies to more than just music. You guys are missing out on a lot of greatness.
Look, I’m not saying Aeolus is anything special. Obviously, if you compare them to the old guard like the Emperor or Mayhem, they don't even come close. But no band starts out legendary. You need time to grow up and actually mature musically. Aeolus is on the right track. Plus, they’re one of the few bands actually worth listening to in this dead-end American metal scene. Give them a chance. They might actually turn into something decent.

Honestly, I’m done wasting my breath on people who can't see past their own limitations. You're the ones losing here, and all you're doing is proving how little you actually know.

Good grief... 😍

To be hailed as one of the premier American black metal bands, only to be met with such clumsy comments—it’s just pure prejudice. It really shows how narrow-minded people can be. They completely miss the point of a band undergoing musical growth and maturity; they're actually on the right track! Honestly, they're one of the few listenable acts left in this decaying, dead American metal scene. It's just such a waste of breath to dwell on such limited perspectives... 🙏🙏🙏

quiettrucker80 said:Unbelievable... 😍

Being hailed as one of the best American black metal bands, yet all we get is mindless comments, pure prejudice, narrow-mindedness, and a lack of musical growth. They're actually on the right track—one of the few listenable acts left in this rotting, dead American metal scene—but people just waste breath talking about how limited they are... 🙏 🙏 🙏

hm... what's with all these big words? Don't you know what they mean? Need me to explain them for you?

Is what we're looking at up there some kind of social experiment to see how low things can go? 🙂

I actually changed my mind about this band once I heard they were being called one of the best black metal acts in America... so, I guess they really are top-tier 😂

Why isn't Thompson shaving on that specific track?

Wait, are the guys actually taking a stand against Nazism or not?
Because if they are, telling people to just "open their minds" to Nazism is... well, let's just say it's a bit much. 😁

Hmm, I was actually going to bring that up too, but I figured I’d better stay quiet so I wouldn't offend the OP.😳

Ah, the curse of some ancient king 🤣 though I’d honestly much rather listen to a decent American pagan metal band 😳
