User Album Review
Amongst countless bands that play a similar style of music, Falls of Rauros manage to remain sounding fresh with their potent mixture of black metal, post-rock, and nature-inspired folk. For fans of the genre, it’s hard to find anything inherently wrong with Vigilance Perennial. The album does exactly what it sets out to do, and it doesn’t waste any of our valuable time in the process. Every song ends not a second too early or late, and every note is filled with deep meaning and resonance. From the moment “White Granite” opens with the band’s tasteful and unique guitar-work, it often feels like they’re playing in slow motion, allowing the listener to appreciate every solitary moment as the album unfolds. Few bands could dream of crafting an album as stunning and richly textured as Falls of Rauros have here. There are moments of ruthless heaviness, but none of them feel like they’re there just for the sake of being loud or making an impression – but rather carefully placed amidst the calmer peaks and valleys of the band’s masterful creation. A decade in, Falls of Rauros have finally unleashed all the promise they’ve harbored into the towering high point of their career– and man, what a beautiful thing it is to witness.
