Progressive black metal. Digipack. Germany.
the astral collision between blackened ambient noise act "Tome of the Unreplenished" and deep field cosmic black metal act "Starless Domain" is happening in a nearby black-hole - the expected formation to arrive in this parallel universe.
Genius Loci uses deep drones, acoustic instruments’ sounds and field recordings registered near the author’s place of living (Jaworzno). The project was inspired by the author’s personal fascination with the diversity of nature and the philosophy of Schopenhauer, who considered nature to be one of the most primaeval manifestations of a blind and aimless will, a will which we too are a part of.
Dark ambient. Digipack. Italy.
Trepaneringsritualen return to Cold Spring with an album-long ritual working entitled ᛉᛣ - Algir; eller Algir i Merkstave. On this record - constructed from a series of rituals designated to guide the last ceasing of ᛏᛇᚱᚫ ᚾ ∴ ᚾ ∴ ᚾ - T × R × P is manifest in its most obscure form. Sonically minimal yet devastating in emotional impact, this working lets the listener grasp the last vestiges of Nifl and Múspell, and with them as weapon and beacon traverse the Night. ᛉᛣ reveals a barren landscape where crooked paths lead onward, through soot black veils to a point of radiant light where all that is is Union & Dissolution.
Dedicated to our sister, ᛏᛇᚱᚫ ᚾ ∴ ᚾ ∴ ᚾ.
T × R × P channelled through the forms of ᚦᛟᚦ ᚷᛁᚷ, ᚾᛟᚺ ∀⚭∀, and ᛏᛇᚱᚫ ᚾ ∴ ᚾ ∴ ᚾ at the 63rd Link, 4 & Rising, and Zone Rouge December 2017 e.v. - July 2018 e.v. Mastered by Martin Bowes. Artwork by Nullvoid.
Sutartinės in their pure form! Unique Lithuanian polyphonic ritual songs are performed by the most known sutartinės singers (chanters) group Trys Keturiose. This is very old tradition from pagan past, kept alive in secret for ages, mostly among women. The songs (chants) on conceptual "Kas dar taka" collection are dominated by the Lithuanian verb teka which has several mythologically connected meanings: it means the rising of the sun, the flowing of a river, the flowing of time as well as the process of a woman marrying a man. The chants have a strict and careful connection to the authentic findings of folklore expeditions, and have been tonically perfected by singers' voices only, without other musical instruments or sounds. Strongly entrancing, magical sutartinės smoothly flow and weave a symbolic message from a femininely transparent, fragile and slow that time (in illo tempore) to the hurried and chaotic world. The CD comes in a 4-panel digipack, incl. full description.
