"Symphony of Flies" is the third Livløst's album, the two Norwegians are playing an uncompromising, grimly dissonant and bewitched black metal with definitively sinister atmospheres. Often difficult, frequently nightmarish, this stuff easily ranks as one of Nordic lands' more challenging and oblique offerings. And for us, one of his most fascinating. With a mix of various Norse black metal traditions, atmospheric and mid-tempo practices, and a radical approach to traditional notions of extreme music in its truest sense, 'Symphony of Flies' is undoubtedly highly demanding of the listener. ...a dreamlike descent into the realm of death.
