Album Description
Available in:
"Patterns in Mythology" is the 5th full-length studio album from Falls of Rauros, released July 19, 2019 on the Gilead Media label.
An expansion upon what was explored on "Vigilance Perennial" and a detour towards another direction entirely. Engineered, mixed, and mastered by Colin Marston at Menegroth, this record became both the heaviest and the most intricately detailed in the band's career without forsaking the foundations the band is built upon; black metal operating in tandem with a melody more often heard in the folk and rock spheres.

User Album Review
Patterns In Mythology essentially picks up where Vigilance Perennial left off, but it’s far from being that black and white. While the former relied heavily on grandeur and epic sensibilities, Patterns In Mythology lives in pure atmosphere. Right from the album’s more sensual beginnings in “Détournement,” Falls Of Rauros take their careers’ statement and build on the barreling lushness of the genre’s very stereotypes. Sure, it could be argued that all of this has been done before, but rarely at this calibre. Everything about Patterns In Mythology demands attention.
There are those who find the likes of this years’ Saor or Cân Bardd ‘too’ epic, but the restrained Patterns In Mythology is clearly a story, told expertly by narrators who know exactly what they’re doing. It’s not conventional (for what conventional would normally require in such a soundscape) but neither is it outlandish. The guys from Maine highlight balance; whether it be musicianship, the balance of the album’s mixing or even the when needed approach of its vocal sections that prevents all manners of an overbearing, unwelcoming listen. For forty-five minutes listeners experience a masterclass of modern black metal that leans heavily on its folk-y atmospherics, joyful notes and artful mid-paced rhythms. Patterns In Mythology is an album full of successes, for fans and fans of music everywhere.
