Aussichtslos - Vollig Aussichtslos

Digipack. AUSSICHTSLOS' moniker translates to "forlorn, futile, hopeless" in English, and such is the anguish one will find across their Völlig Aussichtslos debut. With a patient pulse behind oft-rocking riffs, the six songs comprising their 45-minute first full-length put a paradoxically triumphant aspect to their dizzying misery. Grim and harsh black metal is the order of the day here, but robustly recorded and giving clarity to AUSSICHTLSOS' cursed ruminations.
