Background information about 'Tales Of Othertime'

There is a particular kind of magic that happens when a band stops chasing trends and simply lets the old spirits speak through them, and Stormkeep have bottled exactly that on "Tales Of Othertime". This is dungeon synth-tinged black metal with a storyteller's heart, all frostbitten tremolo melodies, galloping rhythms and keyboards that shimmer like torchlight on wet stone. The record moves with the swagger of a classic heavy metal LP and the atmosphere of a forgotten cassette found in a castle cellar, and somehow both halves fit together perfectly.

What really sets it apart is the songwriting. Nothing here feels like filler or a genre exercise; every riff earns its place, every synth line opens another door into some half-remembered legend. The production is warm and full rather than sterile, giving the guitars a bite and the synths a glow that makes the whole thing feel like a night-long journey rather than a quick listen. There is drama, there is melancholy, and there is a genuine sense of wonder that is far too rare in this corner of the underground. Put the needle down, dim the lights and let it carry you off.

For fans of: Summoning, Caladan Brood, Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, Obsequiae
