This work by A Forest of Stars perfectly aligns with the term 'gothic' not in the modern 'Goth' sense, but as the mysterious and unsettling atmospheres of a good late 19th-century novel.

The question is not who, the question is why! Couldn’t they have devoted themselves to something else? Believe me, it would have been decidedly better! In essence, “Hidden by the Forest” is a true plagiarism of the early works of Burzum and Darkthrone.
