Review by Nimish Shah

Anima Nostra is a collaborative album by Henrik Nordvargr Björkk and Margaux Renaudin that blends ritualistic elements with dark ambient soundscapes. The album is a haunting and immersive experience that takes the listener on a journey through the depths of the human psyche.

The album opens with "Sunyata," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album with its ominous drones and ethereal vocals. "Gjallarhornet" is another standout track that features Nordic folk elements and a hypnotic beat. "Lavenement Du Neant" is a highlight of the album, with its tribal rhythms and eerie chanting.

Throughout the album, Björkk and Renaudin create a sense of otherworldliness that is both unsettling and captivating. The use of field recordings and found sounds adds to the overall atmosphere of the album, creating a sense of place and time that is both ancient and futuristic.
