Mixerr Album Reviews #1,873

Mountains and Darkness is the second album by NorthWind Wolves released by BLACK LION RECORDS for 2019. Fans of black metal will enjoy this album! This is an album you will regret missing out on if you have not already heard the songs. The album has that darkened grim as their first album Dark... Cold...Grim... did. One word to describe this album is dark. Perfect black metal.


Before Dawns First Light serves as the opening track for this album. It’s the calm before the storm. Despite the title, Before Dawns First Light has a dark black metal sound.

Before Dawns First Light starts off with an array of off key synths. Things get dark real quick as the guitars get to playing. The mood is similar to a dark night surrounding a castle. The black metal begins and the song goes into dark territory quickly.

The snow-capped Mountains in the distance that night shone like crystal ice. The angels cry. The world will burn. Night will turn to day. Is it Evil who rules the day? Look to the moon in the night before the Dawn's first light.

Things get very grim towards the end as death occurs.

'Til death descends and I slip away...
No more regrets 'cause I'm here to stay
I'm in your corner and I'll Be by your side
I'm so Fucking evil, I know that you lied
The venom in my fangs now on your breath
The Sun is Fading, Prepare for your Death.


Ludmilla the Witch is a twisted black metal tale about a witch named Ludmilla.

Ludmilla is a witch. Her skin pale as snow like a ghost in the night. Visions of her spirit haunt in the light of day and in the night. She gave you everything you wanted and needed. However it feels as if every choice made just wasn't right. She is the source of everlasting evil, bringer of unholy death. Looks and personality can be deceiving.

Ludmilla casts a spell during the chorus. These lyrics explain what happens when beauty and darkness meet each other.

Skin pale as snow like a ghost in the night...
You've casted a spell and poisoned my sight...
When beauty and darkness align for true pain...
The wicked Ludmilla emerges again...

When beauty and darkness meet each is when Ludmilla casts a spell. The skies blacken. Her Basilisk Demons to crush you tonight. Mysterium winters of unholy light. Ludmilla's still watching with every last breath. She is the bringer of death.  Her Basilisk Demons to crush you tonight. The ones who die are innocent.


Lord of winter and death is a wicked dark death metal song about how the world will end in fire. It’s a brash driven black metal song. Some people have said the world will end in fire in an eternal blaze. A curse by wicked frozen skies. Only time will tell. Valley of Twin Peaks is now covered in blood from an aftermath of a battle. Lost souls fill the air.  Royal Knights with noble sights patrol these borders now. To sum it all up, the world will end in an eternal blaze of fire.

I rate this album 5/5*****!
