DARKSPACE

Release Year: 2023
Artist Origin: SWI
Style: disturbing psychedelic atmospheric black metal

nightmarish, bizarre, disturbing cinematic black metal, once described straight as the ideal black metal version of the Eraserhead movie soundtrack, sounds on the second album [2005] by enigmatic trio from Bern, further developing their vision of cold cosmic horror and vacuum darkness, this time refining the music's specific structure even more: lengthy, hypnotic compositions radiate an otherworldly monotony, rhythmic nuances evoke an industrial pulse, while a wall of guitar noise and ambient moments create the sensation of being trapped in an endless void of black cosmos; compared to the debut, three extended compositions feature clearer sound balance, deeper spatial perception, and a more defined dramatic tension, all while preserving the same mysterious, utterly unique atmosphere; recent French slipcase edition comes on black polycarbonate CD with updated artwork
