Matthew Johnson
A masterful blend of conceptual materialwith solid black metal riffs and vocals that alternate between cavernous grunts and hopeless, angry shrieking. Just four long songs here, with final track “An Ode to Emptiness” soaring into a paradoxical blend of epic hopelessness before trailing off into a bleak but peaceful sense of acceptance.
Favorite track: Ode to Emptiness.

The third BONJOUR TRISTESSE album paints an extremely bleak picture of the dystopian reality of our time from an unusual perspective. It can be seen as an angry and passionate critique of the industrialized world we are living in. At the centre is the conflict between modern humanity and nature.
The album is also the first part of a two-part cycle, which has a conceptual thread running through it. Raw violence goes hand in hand with a feeling for melodies, whereby the pendulum of BONJOUR TRISTESSE often swings towards frenzy and at the same time transports an oppressive feeling with plaintive-manic vocals.

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity.
Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder edoerfler

While Ofte jeg drømmer mig død will most likely always be my favourite Afsky album (being one ov my favourite albums in general), Om hundrede år ticks all the boxes I hoped it would: the calm and simultaneously depressing folk elements are there; the wailing screams of a forlorn spirit, forced to eternally wander the woods (apt comparison, deadpunk!); the harsh, bitterly cold guitar riffs and the ultimate realisation of life, death and our inevitable undoing. Exactly what I want. Recommended! David Fischer
