The return of the Neofolk legend
Sol Invictus are the godfathers of classic Apocalyptic Folk. "The Cruellest Month," their first album for six years, has turned out to be a typical Sol Invictus album in every regard. Music-wise, it is angular, combative, and painful, with pessimistic and cynical lyrics. The 17th studio album by Sol Invictus sees Tony Wakeford finding back to his true strengths, cementing the position of Sol Invictus as the spearheads of the Neofolk genre.
