Agalloch - Of Stone, Wind, & Pillor (2001)

 Of Stone, Wind, And Pillor is a brief but potent entry in Agalloch’s discography. The EP captures a transitional moment where their early blackened folk metal roots take on more texture and atmosphere. There’s a sense of desolate beauty throughout, balancing harshness and melancholy with care. It’s a compact but haunting piece of the larger Agalloch mythos while also cementing itself as an engaging and satisfying listen, decades after its initial release.

2022 German reissue from Eisenwald and it sounds phenomenal.
