Review by Emil WE

Barren Column's latest album, To Praise And Starve In Isolation, is a hauntingly beautiful collection of songs that captures the essence of isolation and introspection. The album is a testament to the band's ability to create a soundscape that is both atmospheric and introspective, with each track seamlessly blending into the next.

The album opens with the track "The Last Journey", which sets the tone for the rest of the album with its slow, somber melody and haunting vocals. The album continues with tracks like "Lies Upon The Tongue", "The Cold Discreetness Of Death", and "Shadows Of The Past", all of which are equally mesmerizing and thought-provoking.

Barren Column's use of minimal instrumentation and atmospheric soundscapes creates a sense of emptiness and isolation that is both haunting and beautiful. The album's lyrics are equally introspective, delving into the themes of mortality, isolation, and the human condition.

Summary by Emil WE

To Praise And Starve In Isolation is a stunning album that showcases Barren Column's talent for creating music that is both haunting and beautiful. It is an album that will leave a lasting impression on its listeners and is definitely worth a listen for any fan of atmospheric black metal.
