Old Growth

Old Growth transforms atmospheric black metal into a shamanic ritual that transcends mere music. "Mossweaver" is Animist's visionary work of sonic rewilding ceremony, ripping listeners from civilized existence and catapulting them into the primal landscapes of our ancestors. The seven compositions function as an initiation ritual into a world where human and nature still existed as one entity. Each track is dedicated to different aspects of wilderness – from the majestic "Queen Of The Woodland Realm" to the introspective "Altar Of Wisdom" passages that rise like ancient prayers from the forest depths.

What distinguishes "Mossweaver" from ordinary nature black metal is Animist's radical approach: here, it's not a human creating music about nature, but wild nature itself seems to speak through the instruments. The production is deliberately organic to capture the atmosphere of untouched landscapes. Shamanic chants merge with primitive rhythms into a sound that's simultaneously meditative and feral. "Mossweaver" is less an album than an acoustic path back to our animalistic roots – a musical reminder that we were once wild, free beings.
