The Mantle

Agalloch
Released 2002Metal
Deep cutPicked by a lifelong record collector

A folk-tinged, atmospheric black-metal peak. Beautiful and acclaimed. A cult landmark. Released in 2002, it's an early landmark for Agalloch.

On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
