Avantgarde Music

Dopo 5 lunghi e sofferti anni di silenzio, Arcana Coelestia risorgono dal bagliore degli splendori di " Le Mirage de L’ideal“
con un fantastico nuovo album che mixa alla perfezione le due identità (o radici) della band, con la parte funeral atmospheric doom ora decisamente prevalente sul passato black metal.

"Un ascolto stimolante, nella misura in cui atmosfere oscure e tenebrose, di evidente matrice black, si coniugano con una ricerca strumentale post-core, per certi versi vicina agli ultimi Isis." Estratto da "www.metallus.it"

The grey mist surrounding Milan was the perfect setting for Korpsvart and Ymir to start writing music, an atmospheric black metal devoted to the Pacific Northwest, yet mixed with blackgaze and a taste of depressive rock.
The milanese band is only debuting, but their sound is definite and varied, yet humble. A first effort which shows a precise direction, the album succeeds in mixing fury and softness, nostalgia and sense of wonder. In the musicians own words, “though not exactly what one would call a concept album, "The Shrine Of..." can be considered as a coherent journey through the most sublime, yet dismal, aspects of nature and myth; a voyage which ultimately merges with a reflection on the human condition and its fleeting nature.”
“The Shrine Of Primal Fire finds a perfect balance between so many different feelings, making the music of A Pale December the perfect autumn soundtrack.

"The End" is a concept album about a human being travelling across the lands as the world begins to end....

Each song represents different events during the ending process, and as they unfold the being feels as himself is becoming god, or death itself.
By the end of the album this being by all means becomes god and rules over the wasteland left behind.

All lyrics rely on anti-Christian themes, and overall an incredibly nihilistic approach to it all.
The album in itself represents Nihility overall.

While Selvans are full time working on the second full-length, Avantgarde Music is going to celebrate the closing of the first chapter of the band activity with a special release (for the meaning and the feature): the live album 'Hirpi'.
The album consists of four tracks covering the three Selvans releases plus the live cover of Draugr's 'Furore Pagano' as a tribute to the past.

The album has been recorded during two live performances in Pescara: on April, 23rd 2016, during a special concert in memory of Jonny Morelli - Selvans former singer and drummer - and on December, 16th of the same year.
The line-up is Haruspex and Fulguriator plus live session musicians: Acheron (guitar), Cordyceps M (bass) and HK (drums).
Draugr's ex members Triumphator (guitar) and Stolas (bass) joined Selvans on stage to perform 'Furore Pagano'.
The Faun's procession on the artwork has been conceived by Haruspex and made by the italian artist Umberto D'Ottavio.

Second edition of Mesarthim's hyper-celebrated debut album 'isolate'

Black Vinyl

These songs revolve around the transformation from man to The Übermensch (German for "Overman, Overhuman, Superman, Superhuman), through the purification of the fire and the metaphor of the warrior, mainly taking inspiration from parts of Vijnanabhairava as well as personal experiences of meditation.

Fire is the main element manifested by Shiva, seen as a purifying factor and dissolving, regenerating and annihilating.
In this case also seen as the awakening of a burning and dissolving energy, which brings chaos and destroys the boundaries of mortality to reach immortality.

It?s not only the prestigious careers of their members to make DEN SAAKALDTE a special band... but rather their unmatchable sound, forged on old-style norwegian black metal roots and adorned with the luxury of amazing orchestrations and macabre piano parts making them UNIQUE !
