В Седьмом Кругу Безысходности


Khnuth was a Russian Depressive Black Metal band that was formed by a man named Alexandr Tantsyrev shortly after he served 8 years for murder. Oh yes, Varg ain't the only murderer who has produced Black Metal. However, Khnuth is far better than anything Varg has put out after he was released from prison. The band's final album, В Седьмом Кругу Безысходности, is quite similar to what Burzum was back in the good old days. It's cold, bleak, raw, and the distortion will tear you to shreds. All the brutalities of prison life are made manifest by this album. Dostoyevsky once wrote a short story called "The Priest and the Devil" on the walls of his cell in a cold Siberian prison. If you ask me, this album would be that story's soundtrack.
