Flowing Downward

It must be said asap: AzVs, the mastermind behind DAUGHTERS OF SOPHIA, choose to end his life on October 16th 2024. Flowing Downward, the label, received the whole album a few months before his death and was given freedrom upon its release. It is thus in memory of a gentle but tormented soul that we releases this album.

Titled "(4.0°) Tsalmaweth", this is the fourth album of the French Atmospheric Post-Black Metal project DAUGHTERS OF SOPHIA. Following the formula of long songs centered around excellently melodic riffs and solos, fast rhythms and shaded vocals, this album displays a certain crystalline, epic but haunted atmosphere throughout the whole length.

Wave after wave, song after song, this challenging album unveils its curse and its beauty all together. The sound of eerie, sick and morbid vocals intertwines with the melodic quality of the guitarswork, sometimes uplifting sometimes almost sinister, releasing a certain degree of emotive contrast. Demons meet lifeforce.

With lyrics dwelving in anti-nomianism, left-hand-path philosophies and Japanese literature, this sense that haunts the whole album finds explanation.

For fans of: Lantlôs, An Autumn for Crippled Children, Falaise, Lascar, Blut Aus Nord.

Following the first volume 2022 EP, the new APRS album "Radio Nocturna Vol.2: Voces del pasado" helps you to tune into harmony, deliverance and your best emotional answer to fear, pain, disappointment and regret. Transformation stands where two opposites meet: interwining the rawness and charge of Atmospheric Post-Black Metal with uplifting harmonies, APRS grants you a tune in emotional intensity with redemption as only possible outcome.

For fans of: Alcest, Violet Cold, Olhava, Skyforest, Lantlôs.

Trhä truly stands in a league of its own. The sheer volume of material, combined with its distinctive, otherworldly approach to raw black metal, makes it feel like an inexhaustible well of inspiration. Even among the genre’s most prolific anonymous acts, few manage to be this consistently innovative.

This latest album is an excellent example of Trhä’s ability to push boundaries—blazing fast, drenched in atmosphere, yet never falling into predictability. That comparison to Liturgy on track 6 is fascinating, especially since Trhä usually leans more into dreamlike, folkish textures rather than the kind of rhythmic

deconstruction Liturgy does. And that synth closer? Just breathtaking. It’s rare for a project this prolific also to feel like it’s evolving constantly.
