after seven years of silence, French black metal orthodoxes return with an album of seven meticulously crafted tracks, inviting listeners to venture beyond conventional anti-religious rhetoric and seek answers where faith collides with doubt, and spiritual aspirations confront limitations of the physical world; raw music intertwines Luciferian revolt, occult symbolism and attempts to pierce the veil of apparent reality, while each piece tells its own story - lengthy creative hiatus allowed the band to take its time and carefully select the material, resulting in a sound where merciless black metal aggression blends with gloomy melodies, dissonance, atmospheric interludes and dynamic compositional shifts, transforming it into dark, philosophical journey between corporeality, cosmic depths and spiritual defiance; French first press digipak edition
