Wander Lust are a duo from San Jose, California that plays an ethereal form of black metal and this is a review of their 2025 album Solace Of A Dream" which was released by Portal Studios.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very melodic style along with some clear singing also being utilized at times and the riffs also add in a lot of melody.
Clean playing is also added on some of the tracks while the music also has its atmospheric moments. Elements of post metal can also be heard at times along with the faster sections of the songs also adding in a decent amount of blast beats, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them and some tracks also add in a touch of shoegaze.
Wander Lust plays a style of black metal that is very atmospheric and ethereal sounding as well as adding in elements of post metal and shoegaze to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover solitude, transformation and the search for solace within the Vastness of dreams.
In my opinion Wander Lust are a very great sounding ethereal black metal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Burning Wood" "Spiders" "Stuck in A Reverie" and "44". 8 out of 10.
