Ereb Altor – By Honour

Ereb Altor, a Swedish Viking/doom metal band to be proud of.

Inheriting the spirit of the legendary band Bathory, they craft a heavy, epic sound.

This title track from their second album “By Honour,” released in March 2008, is a piece that symbolizes the band’s musical identity.

It fuses the earth-crawling weight of doom metal with valiant melodies that evoke the harsh nature of the Nordic lands.

The sound seems to tell of a warrior’s grim resolve as he marches to the battlefield with honor in his heart, and of an unshakable cry of the soul.

The majestic clean-vocal choral parts may well draw listeners into an ancient mythic world.

It’s a must-hear for anyone who loves grand historical romance or fantasy.

Both Eyes ClosedA$AP Rocky

A$AP Rocky – Both Eyes Closed (From “Highest 2 Lowest”) (Audio)

Let me introduce a track by A$AP Rocky, created as part of the soundtrack for director Spike Lee’s film “Highest 2 Lowest.” Rocky himself appears in the film as a member of a gang, and this introspective song vividly reflects the turmoil of his character.

The sound—a viscous, psychedelic rock-like guitar intertwined with chopped-up vocals—exudes Rocky’s signature dreamlike aesthetic, and I’m sure many will find themselves addicted to its distinctive atmosphere.

The lyrics, packed with sharp social commentary and human struggle, are a must-hear for fans.

It’s a deep, resonant track that heightens anticipation for his first new project since the 2018 masterpiece “Testing.”
