Retro-Review: ‘Antithesis of Light’ by Evoken

Evoken’s 2005 album Antithesis of Light like most albums in the funeral metal genre is hard to review.

With funeral metal you have very long and slow songs with sparse lyrics. It’s not music meant for moshing or headbanging. Instead, it’s better listened to alone in a dim or dark room while you’re alone with your thoughts or with a few melancholic companions.
