Description/Reviews: 
Code which began as something of a supergroup featuring members Ulver and Dodheimsgard, has always been one of those bands that have been good but never great. They've had great moments, but never that complete album that I have always thought them capable of producing. Thankfully my faith in them has been justified with their latest endeavor.
Mut, The fourth full length from the London quintet, sees the band taking a new musical direction. Putting aside their progressive black metal sound for a post rock approach. But it's much more than that. They still display all the progressive elements that have made them a good band for the last decade. However on Mut they have found themselves, realizing their full potential.

Description/Reviews: 
Augur Nox is a lush, modern record that ostensibly shares more sonic characteristics with Tool than anything resembling black metal. It’s more like dark hard rock in many ways, lacking much in the way of menace or aggression. Instead, tracks like “Ecdysis” and “Glimlight Tourist” gush with monochrome shades of Enslaved and are seasoned with a bit of Opethian melodrama to (un)sweeten the deal.
