And a star shines
Veritas Diaboli Manet in Aeternum : Chaining the Katechon
Mass Grave Aesthetics
Kénôse
Since on Thursday it was announced that Deathspell Omega will be releasing their final album in their trilogy, the aptly titled "Paracletus", on November 9th, I decided to make a Deathspell Omega post with the rest of their "new" material. That means I won't be posting their first two albums.
Shortly after the release of SMRC was Kénôse, a seeming addendum dealing with the supposed divinity of Jesus. Then came Mass Grave Aesthetics taking a considerably different lyrical subject, this time focusing on a Laurent Tailhade quote, "What do the victims matter, so long as the gesture is beautiful." and delving upon the concept of the aesthetics of violence. Lastly is their newest EP, Chaining the Katechon, a most apocalyptic piece detailing the coming of the Antichrist and that nothing will stop it.
Musically Kénôse bares a strong resemblance to SMRC, while Mass Grave Aesthetics seems more a cross of their old material with the newer style and intelligence of SMRC. Lastly, Chaining the Katechon has an almost sludge and doom sound to it with several slow crushing riffs.
All three are fantastic EPs and well worth a listen though my personal favorites of the 3 are Chaining the Katechon and Mass Grave Aesthetics certainly. Further, it is my hope that the new album will bare resemblance to the sound present on Chaining the Katechon.
No tracklists, post is long enough.
