Passion, torment, fear, emotion, those are some decent elements to put into a black metal album. They are also exactly what you can expect on this debut ep.  Yet, what else would you expect from seasoned musicians like these.  Ghost Horizon, formed by Daniel Stollings (ex-Severed Receptors and Psychobliss - Guitars/Bass) and aided by Uræus (Vocals/Drums/Additional music), is a deeply personal project, that's for sure.

In almost twelve minutes, Ghost Horizon spew their brutal and immersive black metal over the listener, showing absolutely no mercy.  Their approach towards this genre is intense, fierce and modern, somewhere in the neighbourhood of Wolves In The Throne Room or Woods Of Ypres perhaps.  Yet, there also seems to be a massive nudge towards the vintage, old school version of this genre.

This ep is a taste of things to come, or so I hope. It shows an act that stubbornly go their own way, do their own thing and try to make the best of every possible situation.  Black metal fans should not deny this, that's for sure.  If you're into a haunting and massive sound, this surely is your cup of tea.  I hope this ep will be followed by a full-length soon, and a vast number of tour dates or course...
