Can Austin Lunn do no wrong? His one-man project, Panopticon, is one of the marvels of the modern metal world: combining American black metal of the Cascadian vein with bluegrass, the project fuses abrasion and emollience, aggression and passion, cold and warmth into a powerfully emotional cocktail of music. The frigid Nordic tremolo riffing and sweet Americana swirl and mix into something that could only be described as “nostalgic”. Conjuring up grand visions of the Appalachians in the fall, of maroon and russet tinges creeping up mountains, by way of the use of banjo, fiddle, harmonica, and blastbeats, “Autumn Eternal” is a beautiful, evocative piece of work, lush in its instrumentation, painting wide swathes on a beautiful aural canvas. Fall can’t come soon enough.
