KOMMANDANT
Stormlegion

Kommandant have already stated their supremacy on the avantgardistic black metal front with their previous acclaimed “The Draconian Archetype”, it’s now the time to settle new standards and achivements…

* the song “Killing Word” will be a bonus track exclusively available on the 600 copies Digipak edition.
 

Kommandant took their first steps into the Black Metal playground whilst the western world was retreating  into a deep slumber. We can now either decide to face reality; a call to arms, or remain in such a state of impotence.

Kommandant brings forth the inferno; an enlightenment and awareness that is both clandestine, and apparent simultaneously . Ancient phantograms, echoing both the struggle of the past and the actuality of the present, make their fog of war pervasive to all the stagnant relics that hinder advancement. Audibly , this is by far the most staggering version of the Kommandant weaponry. Blunt force trauma, striking hard and fast, for maximum effect.

The soldiers marching in the fog are obedient vessels, actuated by a primordial magnetic impulse. While listening to “Titan hammer” it can immediately be perceived as an imminent  tragedy , a mere lingering spectre, devouring any remaining glimmer or aspirations. Once fully emerging from this acrid slurry, the  miasma will succeed in trapping the listener within the entrails of atavistic phantoms.

References can be made somehow to nefarious acts like War, Marduk & Zyklon-B. Within  a scene that is severely  overpolluted by  disingenuous bedroom projects , Kommandant takes a step to the front with mature songwriting and a professional studio recording shaped in Belle City Sound Company studio, located in Racine, WI.

The artwork and layout is perfectly emphasized once again with the creative genius of artist Francesco Gemelli ( Abigor, Katatonia. Kvist, Darkspace, Spectral Lore ..)

“Titan Hammer”  will march and progress deeper and deeper into the battlefield of humanity , like a dagger to the heart of the world.

EXHIBITION OF CONQUEST is an abrupt departure from the undeviating approach of titan hammer; a sojourn into the psyche and Genesis of the band’s original historical concepts, yet realized as a contemporary manifestation. It has been a time for reflection, and time for pause, to energize and gather weapons, planning the next strike.
This true form of Black art is dangerous and intoxicating, a fist in the face of God.
EXHIBITION OF CONQUEST provides a path of escape, to those lost within the current insufferable and nauseating state of extreme music.
This new chapter of the American band is not merely a furtherance of their usual brutal approach . This version has been sharpend to form a Rising Storm of frostbitten icy landscapes, that satiate the seeker of truth.
Once again, all artwork has been created by Francesco Gemelli (Darkspace, Spite Extreme Wing, Forgotten Woods, Abigor…).
