Blackbraid – The Dying Breath of a Sacred Stag

Like I said, I dicovered so many good black metal bands in the last few weeks. Blackbraid is another one of these.
I speed-ran through their entire discography and every single song of theirs is rock-solid.

I like their cover of Bathory's A Fine Day to Die. On that note, The Dying Breath of a Sacred Stag reminds me a bit of A Fine Day to Die, in the beginning.
On another note, my favourite bird (the american woodcock) makes a guest appearance on the song Warm Wind Whispering Softly Through Hemlock at Dusk.
