Celestial Sword "Fallen From the Astral Temple" CD

Morbid Chapel CD edition with printed disc with original photos. Comes with 4 pages booklet in regular case

"Celestial Sword’s debut evokes mesmerising melodies carrying the listener through the mysterious and cryptic ways of ancient beings.
Dismal black metal with a dungeonesque atmosphere" is a pretty reliable source for black metal that both sonically and aesthetically continues to till the soil of the 90s and early 00s, which for someone like myself who grew up in those times who continues to have that itch that requires scratching means I can typically approach their release schedule knowing I’ll find something comfortable to slip into. Celestial Sword’s debut cassette from the label carries a lot of what made early Xasthur great but infuses it with some extremely original and harsh vocal work, at times reminding me of Vorak and at others the mid 90’s Polish demo scene. This is dismal black metal with a dungeonesque atmosphere, another excellent find for the label and an extremely promising project to keep an eye on for the future.
