ODIUM (Nor) – ‘The Sad Realm of the Stars’ CD

Odium is a name that hasn’t been talked about much in the symphonic black metal scene. Formed in 1994, the Norwegian band didn’t release much besides a demo, a single, and their only studio album “The Sad Realm of the Stars”. The 1998 album received little recognition when it was first released since it was seen as more of a Limbonic Art knockoff. However, when you give the album a listen, you’ll see that it’s more than just a cheap ripoff of Limbonic Art. Not only does it expand upon the Limbonic Art sound, but it also stands out in its own ways.
