Vorga remain one of the best black metal acts out there right now, and this only supports that claim.
Favorite track: Argil.

How did I miss this release? This is absolutely awesome! Just as great as their first album Striving Toward Oblivion. Great black metal!

8.5/10 - "An outstanding debut we recommend to listeners who are passionate about new and unique approaches to extreme metal but without wanting to miss out on melody, the cosmic expanse and atmospheric glory." - Streetclip

"Vorga’s “Radiant Gloom” is hyper-charged with vividness and it is hard to resist its charm even after the first playthrough." - Support Black Metal

"In a music genre that several people consider as already saturated, it’s always a pleasure seeing the birth of excellent bands like Vorga, shutting those unbelievers up with huge dosages of talent, hard work and loyalty to the foundations of Black Metal, with Radiant Gloom representing just their first of many steps in the right direction, no doubt about that." - The Headbanging Moose

"A black metal band not trying too hard to be kvlt and instead creating some great songs with a superb tone to them. This is hopefully going to lead to a bright future for them, and I look forward to more." - The Killchain

"With some EPs you are happy that the playing time is up, Vorga is typically such a band that knows exactly how to create the opposite, because I can easily enjoy an entire album of this." - zwaremetalen

"The members from band performs faster then we can expect of other similar black acts. There’s no doubt, that this is a very interesting EP for analyzing, and in many aspects different from other usual genre’s editions." - Time Machine Music

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74
Their previous album was fantastic, and the preview tracks on this one are too. I have no doubts this is gonna be a highlight release of 2024, even though I have no doubts there will be many quality releases over the whole year :) Jarak
