American re-release of the second full-length album from Bulgarian Folk/Black Metal one man band located in Germany.
"Lady Vitosha" features 8 songs written & composed in the best traditions of the pagan Black Metal style. To surprise Dimo handles all the instruments maximally good (except the drums that are synthetic, but were programmed pretty good too) and the variations of different string-based folk inclusions are also remarkable. This guy really knows how to mix the raw guitar sound with sad yet heart-rending harmonies. The folk acoustic parts appear mainly in every song, except the war-like "Kum Vihúr v slamenata gorica" song, which storms like a tornado. The music is very varied so to say. You can find there everything from slow to fast, from sad to melodic, from meditative to depressive, etc. The lyrics (which are in Bulgarian) and the music itself were totally inspired by the ancient Bulgarian culture. Fans of folk-influenced Black Metal should put their hands on this unordinary stuff.
Re-release contains two bonus tracks from "Baxas Xebesheth 1883" album.
