With their debut album "Dreams of the Hypothermic Mind, "Skaltros has crafted the blueprint for Alaskan Black Metal. Unthinkably lush and dark guitars scream and sprawl across fearful blast beats. Gorgeous ambient passages and breakdown sections swell within the mind with the uncanny power of a Tarkovsky film. Icy vocals shriek terrifying lyrics about the horrors and supremacy of the natural world. Imagine the precision and iciness of Pure Holocaust-era Immortal united with the fearful murkiness of Darkthrone's "Transilvanian Hunger," and the epic song structure and ambient craftsmanship of Wolves in the Throne Room. In other words, sure to satisfy -- and dare we say astound -- even the snobbiest of BM purists. "Dreams of the Hypothermic Mind" is a true black metal masterpiece deserving of a spot in ever BM enthusiast's collection.
