Scythia

Hate Forest’s Scythia on Supernal Music channels raw, tremolo-picked black metal through a lens of Eastern European pagan mysticism. The cassette format suits the lo-fi, corrosive production—guitars shriek with primitive urgency while blast beats hammer out hypnotic rhythms. This is black metal stripped to its most primal, unadorned elements, where atmosphere emerges from sheer sonic decay rather than ornament.
