Rimruna are a band from Germany that has had music reviewed before in this zine and plays an atmospheric form of black metal and this is a review of their 2026 album "Werm droben nachts der Frostmond thront" which was released as a joint effort between Schattenkult Production, Blutmondspharen and Komninant Metal.
A very dark yet heavy sound starts off the album while the synths also add in some atmospheric touches when they are utilized. Spoken words can also be heard at times along with most of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams.
Melodies are also added into a lot of the guitar riffing while the solos and leads are also done in a very melodic style. Clean playing is also added into certain sections of the album along with some tracks also adding in a small amount of clear singing and the f aster sections of the songs also add in a lot of blast beats
When tremolo picking is added into the fast riffing they also give the music more of a raw feeling along with the album also adding in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts, the closing track is also an instrumental. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in German and cover the magick of the moon.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Rumruna and if you are a fan of atmospheric black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Gefahrte der Nacht" and "Die Sage vom Flunkenflug". 8 out of 10.
