I discovered this album when I was 16. 10 years later I still remember every little note and pause. I'm getting a bit sentimental here but I used to sneak out at night for a cigarette in the garden. I watched the woods surrounding my family home and the moon on the horizon while listening to 26:23 🥲 It was beautiful

Masterpiece from the Past ... This project of Vargher (Marcus E. Norman) is really awesome !

[fjoel]

This first full length of Ancient Wisdom is a milestone in Atmospheric Black/Doom Metal and with this album Vargher has proven all his skills!
A unique and fantastic trip straight into the black heart! And a wonderful reminder of the 90s!
Thanks again for this black gem, BMP! 🤘

An excellent back to the past. My favorite album from my favorite band. A masterpiece of darkness and paganism.
Well done 👍

90s era BM is a true representation of Darkness, I love this.

[paulmatthews]

The music somewhat reminds me of the first Katatonia album except this is more sinister for its black metal theme. I like it!

[rimk]

Thanks for bringing up this gem from the past.

Wow, it reminds me of the earlier work of the group Katatonia. Truly one of the best finds
