Terminal Lucidity A most beautiful and timeless band and album. Favorite track: Birth and Death of the Pillars of Creation.

Wound of Briccius A journey through metaphysical space and the cosmos, The Serpent & The Sphere is an amazing album by an amazing band. Acoustics paired with BM never fails to disappoint, and AGALLOCH nailed it perfectly. Perfect for both active and passive listening, this beautiful piece of Atmospheric Black Metal should be lauded as a perfect example of the subgenre for all the rest to follow. Favorite track: The Astral Dialogue.

Bardo Morales Agalloch are one of the all-time greatest bands. Unique blend of neofolk, postrock and melodic black, amazing songrwriting skills and performance all make 'em a super cohesive, solid and inspiring act. This album might not be as good as their two masterpieces Ashes Against The Grain and The Mantle, but believe me it's still pretty awesome!

    Acclaimed Pacific Northwest metal band AGALLOCH have completed work on their new album “The Serpent & The Sphere,” the follow-up to 2010’s “Marrow Of The Spirit.”

    “The Serpent & The Sphere” sees AGALLOCH take their progressive musical oeuvre to another level, all while maintaining the classic AGALLOCH sound. It is an album that reveals the band’s darkest, most meticulously crafted, and atmospherically surging work of their nineteen-year career.

    Captured by legendary producer/engineer Billy Anderson at Cloud City Studios in Portland, Oregon (and mixed by Anderson likewise at Everything Hz), “The Serpent & The Sphere” represents the most glorious sounding AGALLOCH album to date. Making a guest appearance is guitarist Nathanaël Larochette of Canadian neo-folk band Musk Ox who wrote and provided the album’s acoustic interludes.
