A triumphant piece full of atmospheric synthesizers that set the tone and soundscape perfectly. Forest Shrine is able to use their music to create an image in your head. This sounds like spring. 4/5

Tales of the Enchanted Woods
by Grima
supported by 5 fans who also own “Equinox”
Majestic, intricate, and atmospheric melodic black metal. The melodies throughout this album are infectious. The vocals are quite varied (there is a wide array of harsh timbres, but there are also pleasing cleans); the guitar work is complex, layered and rich with innovative riffs; the bass sits in a good spot in the mix; the programmed drums are well done; and the keyboards add a mystical grandeur throughout this album.
