Falls of Rauros describes their sound as "North Appalachian Heathen Black Folk Metal". What a load of pretentious fucking wankery. The pretension of this band increases with the fact that only two of their four band members are named (Acrimonious Vagabond and Abhorrent Wayfarer). Setting aside that they are from Maine, their music still sounds like legitimate Black Metal. (I guess Maine is to the U.S. as Norway is to Europe.) I do suggest you check this out if you are a fan of very atmospheric Metal acts like Agalloch.
