Drudkh – Пісні скорботи і самітності (Songs of Grief and Solitude): I usually write just my reaction to an album and try not to go too meta into things, but this time I have to because it’s just so delicious to watch metalhead tears fall when one of their beloved metal bands makes a non-metal album. It’s like they’re not allowed or something, like it’s some kind of betrayal, and it’s just so beautiful to watch all the salty reactions. This one’s not kvlt enough for the diehard fans.
