Background information über 'Born Of The Flickering (Re-Release)'
This re-release of Old Man's Child's sophomore effort "Born Of The Flickering" stands as a testament to Galder's early vision of symphonic black metal mastery. Originally unleashed in 1996, this album showcases the Norwegian musician's ability to weave intricate keyboard arrangements with ferocious black metal foundations, creating an atmospheric journey through dark medieval landscapes. Tracks like "Demons Of The Thorncastle" and the title track demonstrate Galder's compositional prowess, blending tremolo-picked guitars with haunting synth melodies that transport listeners to forgotten realms of ancient sorcery.
The album's production captures that raw yet polished sound characteristic of mid-90s Norwegian black metal, allowing each instrument to breathe while maintaining the necessary aggression. From the epic opener to the closing "...Leads To Utopia/The Old Man's Dream", this collection represents a crucial stepping stone in Galder's evolution before his work with Dimmu Borgir would bring him international recognition. The symphonic elements never overshadow the metal core, instead enhancing the mystical atmosphere that makes this release a hidden gem in the symphonic black metal canon.
For fans of: Dimmu Borgir, Emperor, Limbonic Art and Covenant
