The solo-project Forlorn Citadel plays epic black metal in the vein of Summoning. This is done so remarkably well that at times fans might find it quite hard to differentiate between these two bands. Nonetheless there are enough elements in the music to distinguish Forlorn Citadel from the inventors of epic black metal. "Ashen Dirge Of Kingslain" should appeal to fans of Summoning, Caladan Broodand Emyn Muil.The first pressing of the CD comes as collector's edition in 4-panel digipack, limited to 500 copies. Includes bonus track.
