Midnight Callings "Transneptunian" CD

With Transneptunian, the mysterious German underground act Midnight Callings delivers their third full-length which is a raw, cold, and uncompromising trip straight back to the 1990s black metal underground. Steeped in lo-fi aesthetics, filthy mastering, and primitive structures, this album channels the spirit of Paysage d'Hiver, early Darkthrone, Horna, Satanic Warmaster, and Ildjarn with a more ambient and hypnotic edge.
Dangerous minor-key riffs, relentless blasts, and murky, distant vocals create a bleak, nostalgic soundscape that feels like it’s been dragged out of a broken tape recorder from another era. Long, repetitive structures and trance-like passages pull the listener into a frozen vortex of time, where atmosphere matters more than clarity or polish.
Transneptunian is pure raw black metal: cold, honest, and deeply rooted in the 90s tradition. Made for die-hard fans of lo-fi, underground black metal who crave ritualistic repetition, bleak moods, and total sonic obscurity.
