Norwegian black metal has never had much interest in making you comfortable, and TULUS have spent their career proving it. Biography Obscene is their 2007 full length, and it does exactly what the title suggests, a document of something that refuses to be cleaned up or explained away.Tulus occupy a specific pocket of the Norwegian scene, less symphonic bombast and more cold, mid-paced darkness with real atmosphere in the arrangements. This is black metal that sits with you rather than rushing past. The tracklist moves through Prelude, Natal Day, Stories Untold, Victim, and beyond, each piece adding to something that feels genuinely considered without losing any of the genre's essential hostility to comfort. For collectors of the Scandinavian dark aesthetic, this is a solid piece of the canon.Jewel case CD, 2007 pressing from Norway. Full length album.Fans of: Khold, Taake, Forgotten Woods
