This lean, 29-minute ritual introduces MOON WISDOM with unrelenting vigor, channeling the raw spirit of black metal’s second wave while weaving a current of punk energy and depressive blackgaze. “Let Water Flow” distills its ferocity into seven tracks that surge like a glacial flood, Razor-edged riffs carve through each song, blending the primal fury of early black metal with soaring melodies that linger like mist.

HEKSEBLAD - The Fall of Cintra
Release: January 16, 2026
Style: Black Metal
Formats: 10" Vinyl | Digital
Album Reviews | Band Page

Channeling a raw primal energy reminiscent of black metal's second-wave, "The Fall of Cintra" is aggressive and atmospheric, with hints of symphonic and melodic flourishes sprinkled within, but with a spirit that summons the ghost of the classic 90's sound. Those who prefer a less polished sound may well consider this Hekseblad's most essential work.
