During the earlier stages of their career, Nachtmystium appeared to be pretty busy causing a buzz within the music world. Between splits with big names such as Xasthur and Krieg and full-length albums, Nachtmystium really began to make a name for themselves, not only in the underground black metal world, but also in the black metal community as a whole. It wasn't until Eulogy, though, that the band really seemed to come into their own with the experimentation of psychedelic melodies over some signature ...

This album is amazing. Nachtmystium has changed drastically from their first release, but they changed for the better. This album has a very dark sound. You won't get any kult ov Azazel or Sumeria in this album. Instead it has more of a Demoncy sound with a lot more melody. The production is very haunting. It really makes the melodic parts of the album sound that much more depressing. This album is fantastic. Buy it before Nachtmystium give up on black metal.

"Instinct: Decay" was probably my favorite releases of 2006, every minute of this album is brilliant! Nachtmystium really redefined their sound and found their own unique sound.
Lo-fi primordial Norwegian black metal buzz curred with weed smoke and loaded with psilocybin. Songs mellifluously transforming from thrashy, harsh riffs into gloriously reverb-soaked metallic crescendos. This is black metal psychedelic art.
For fans of everything from Pink Floyd to Darkthrone. So good!

Nachtmystium did wonderfully in breaking outside the typical black metal sound. This album is an exceptional journey. It slows down and speeds up, has guitar solos! remains heavy as hell, but makes me admire them a lot for not remaining confined in a box, rather integrating different techniques...

Lo-fi DARKTHRONE worship is the order of the day here for this one-man black metal project (from the US), but it's occasionally woven through with melodic leads and solos, a la TIAMAT or PINK FLOYD, and even a touch of AGALLOCH acoustics here and there. Next time though, less dark ambient soundscapes, especially since they're all more or less interchangeable.
