'The Way And The Virtue' consists of two tracks, 'The Way' and 'The Virtue'. Each track is fifteen minutes and thirty seconds long, thus providing you with a total of 31 minutes of sheer dark ambient bliss. The previously mentioned acts regularly come to mind, along with acts like Predominance, Raison d'être and Desiderii Marginis, to name a few. Yes, that means soundscapes, haunting drones and minimal percussion. That also means a hypnotic sonic journey into the darkest regions of your own inner being, which can never be a bad thing.
So yes, this album comes extremely recommended to all dark ambient fans. Druhá Smrt have been perfecting their trade for years and now it results in their most epic work so far. My advice: purchase the album, close the curtains, light a candle, play this at high volume and start meditating. You will envision things you have never imagined, see worlds you never dreamed of, or just gently float on these breathtaking soundscapes. Whatever happens, it will be worth it...
