 Chaos is all this an ethical and moral free zone, a name and reputation with no current year CUD and no percentage or duty to sacrifice to the mercenaries who manage our plastic, damned nihilistic society.

 I won’t die, I won’t give up, I won’t be blackmailed, I won’t allow it, I will be the insane/MC who screams their venom from the local radio announcing the end of the world.

 This album ... gifts us the intensity and peculiarity of two contrasting elements: solitude of a man in search of himself ... and a faint and bright hope.

 The crown of winter turns out to be even more disdainful in its gray tones compared to the debut of the Russian band.

 The more thought-out moments almost seem to have to be there as a continuation of the previous album.

Forest Stream’s second album, The Crown Of Winter, presents a colder, more aggressive sound compared to their debut Tears of Mortal Solitude. While maintaining complex songwriting and their signature atmospheres, it lacks the intimate moments and doom passages that made the first album standout.

The album receives a mixed rating, suggesting hope for future works. Explore Forest Stream’s atmospheric black metal journey and decide if The Crown Of Winter resonates with your taste.
