TheEldritchHorror A genuine magnum opus of genre defying, ultra-extreme & incredibly unique mid-paced & slow-burn death/industrial/doom, for lack of a better comparison. Masterful composition, monolithic sound & inhuman atmospheres. Inhuman but understandable vocals. Lyrically presents powerful concepts. It's cataclysmic, horrifying and devastating in all aspects. Literally nothing like it in any genre of extreme metal.

tobias_rieper Unrelenting Doom/Death with crushing guitars, slow precise drumming (sometimes with double bass) and hypnotic lead guitars just like the ones in Catacombs.

Things are looking grim. Show some love if you can. Favorite track: Cohesion of Cataclysm.

Streams of chaos - converge into a horrid nexus - aeons of cosmic hate erupt - swallowing the stars - concentric waves of darkness - wash away the filth of light - apocalyptic astral chaos unleashed - shatters worlds to dust - dissolution into the sentient darkness - epoch of unlife - accretion of ageless rage - renders life to death - and thus begins - the dark aeon

Vortices 07:01
Abyss within abyss, gateways for the other gods - portals for the horror divinities - beyond the bounds of time and space, infinite hells await - within unfathomed depths - dimensions intertwined - constellations of horror - from the darkness between the stars - of the skies of the abyss - celestial terror unbound - hideous unholy abominations - emerging to cleanse the earth through darkness - astral chaos unleashed - from the vortices

Where I walk I leave a path of ruin and death - that which I touch withers and dies - left blackened and befouled - the living darkness that is I - rotting away the earth with the essence of decay - all things of light and life devoured by darkness - there is no solace from the suffering I bring - I am the plague of the plague... cleansing - the sickness that is man - through the purity of darkness - the living darkness that is I - rotting away the earth with the essence of decay - as grotesque twisted and horrid in their forms - as the essence from which they arose - the wails of the wretched abominations awakened - herald my coming - the world's doom cometh -I, the living darkness - I will show you horrors undreampt of by man - nightmare forms arise from the living black - you will know hell - I will show you suffering, horrid endless pain - contorted in the agony of inhuman torment - I will show you misery, emptiness and despair - a lightless world of ruin where naught is left but decay - you will know hell - I will show you nigthmare, a world of terror - you will know the fear of true black darkness - I will show you anguish - suffer the sickness you are - wretched beings of filth and no worth - empty, shallow and dead - now you will know true darkness - you will know hell

Unique, bombastic and horrifying slow-burn death/industrial/doom from the sole founder/member of the legendary doom/death band Catacombs. Monstrous and cataclysmic in sound and style, with inhumanly deep, guttural vocals, it's driving rhythms and otherworldly and underworldly horrific atmospheres all come together to create the most viciously dark and seething, brutal, hateful extreme metal heard, matched by it's inhumaly hateful lyrical content.
