about
‘The Necromanteion’ is the temple of necromancy. The door to Hades; the realm of the dead. This track shimmers with the dust of caverns far beyond the temporal light afforded to men. The lingering shadows of souls long lost to the ultimate dissolution of body and spirit wander here. Once again, the power of unholy melody is utilized to create an atmosphere most malevolent. Dual guitars, locked in a death-grip, portend a torrent of petrifying, yet alluringly welcome annihilation. This composition has long been in our live arsenal and now it is ready to be truly unfettered upon the unsuspecting ears of man.
lyrics
The Necromanteion
Darkest shrines to Death lay hidden deeply underground,
in ancient, ‘nighted catacombs, where wrathful souls are bound.
Hoary roots suck the soil, a feast of filth and slime.
Spewing black atrocities ‘til the end of time.
I hear the howling on the wind, the blackest of voids that rips through the light.
The gates are blasted open wide, my mind is aflame with chaotic might,
and slaughter is all around you.
Elemental forces in the dark.
Burn the bones and eat the chyldes heart.
Sacrifice the lamb to blackest night.
The Gates of Death are open, now you die…
Leagues below this shadowed kingdom,
where molten veins doth reign.
Assemblies lead by faceless men,
the scions of long dead kings.
Wrapped in armour obsidian,
mouths carved with dusky runes,
calling forth the nameless one,
spells cast in forbidden tongues.
Under the crown of northern mountains,
where sunlight cannot be found.
Temples raised in honour of the fallen one,
Lucifer, I am thy son!
Rise now, in reverence, in devotion to thy burning splendour!
We offer this human swine O' Lord,
grant us thy blessings profound!
The sacrifice made, your blood turns to ice in the darkness.
Lord of All Death approaches with fiery eyes.

The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74

La traversée du désert n'aura pas duré quarante jours mais quatre longues années...
Avec Панихида, Батюшка renaît enfin de ses cendres et, bien que désormais seul (ou plus exactement entouré de deux chanteurs), Христофор accomplit un miracle. Il s'inscrit dans la continuité de Литоургиiа avec un black metal orthodoxe qui nous convie ici à une cérémonie dédiée aux morts. Sa vision est englobante : les mélodies, la gravité et le silence font toucher le paradis ; l'agressivité est luciférienne. Jordan Vauvert
