A twisted obsession for quality

After its initial release in 2020, the debut album Eigenlicht quickly earned raving reviews, establishing itself as the leading newcomer in the Black Metal genre within the Benelux region. By incorporating explosive synthetic elements and a diverse range of instruments, Eigenlicht (2020) boldly defied the conventional sound of black metal. Taking an even bolder step away from tradition, the album Thanatos delves into experimental territory, featuring haunting choirs of screams and grunts layered with deep, captivating clean vocals. Through its intense and evocative narrative, Thanatos (2021) takes listeners on a desolate journey alongside the enigmatic fifth horseman. A new release for 2024 is being recorded as we speak…
