Released in cooperation with Altare Productions. Includes 12-page booklet limited 500 copies
In a new split release, the forward-thinking-in-hindsight Portuguese hermit Onirik pairs with the previously silent, terrifying Grimfaug in a dissertation on two types of fear. On one end of the spectrum, Onirik concentrates on the slow burn of long-term fright. Multi-instrumentalist Gonius Rex’s instrumental performance may reflect the avant-garde-meets-post-Romantic stylings of early Emperor and Arcturus, but it is the constant presence of his layered, clean-voiced chorales which truly make his music unnerving. In its four tracks, Onirik’s offering quite masterfully treads the fine line between antiquated grandeur and hollow, cobweb-coated emptiness. Grimfaug, on the other hand, is more direct in their terror. Following a similar sort of melodic path to their pairing, Grimfaug opts for a more straightforward harmonic sense, instead communicating all fear purely in unbridled aggression. Norgaath and Menthor’s atmosphere-heavy black metal is absolutely uncompromising, recalling the early No Fashion releases through a lens of expressionist fury. As a treat and big surprise, Grimfaug’s “Hour of Sacrifice” features none other than Nyktalgia‘s Skjeld, who lends his incomparable shriek to further Grimfaug’s madness.
