Further advancing BLUT AUS NORD‘s inimitable sound, composer Vindsval has crafted “Disharmonium – Nahab” which contains eleven new manifestations of eerie Lovecraftian horror. Descending into abyssal terrain akin to the twin dark chambers of 2022’s first instalment “Disharmonium – Undreamable Abysses” and companion-piece-of-sorts compilation “Lovecraftian Echoes“, this latest emanation is similarly womb-like, detail-rich, disturbed and transformative.
BLUT AUS NORD‘s latest work of Art is officially released via Debemur Morti Productions and can be listened to via Bandcamp and the label’s YouTube channel:
Mysterious and monstrous, the obscure “Disharmonium – Nahab” has received extensive critical praise:
““Disharmonium – Nahab” is a dark yet gorgeous and enthralling, hallucinogenic journey. The experience proves dizzying, with its dense atmosphere and disturbing soundscape. Of course, the spirituality found within is important to Vindsval, which gives the record its sense of depth and richness. Indeed, “Disharmonium – Nahab” instantly wraps you in its cocoon-like embrace and imparts the sensation of falling straight into a void.” (Metal Sucks)
“Arguably even less “song-based” than its predecessor, the nine tracks (plus three chapter-marking interludes) which make up “Nahab” each represent a singular piece of a greater puzzle – some deeper, and darker, and more demonically-angled than others – at the greater and more hideous whole which lies just behind the veil.” (No Clean Singing)
“Demented, delirious and a pinnacle of the BLUT AUS NORD sound. […] It feels like this new trilogy will go down in history as a part of their discography that contains some of their best works. The first album was just a teasing treat in front of this behemoth, you’re not ready.” (Sputnik Music)
The album is officially released on CD, vinyl, tape and digital along with merchandising. Orders for all items are possible from the label’s EU, US and Bandcamp stores.
Originating in 1994 from the ashes of VLAD (who released two demos), BLUT AUS NORD are undisputable French Black Metal pioneers, always managing to progress and move forward, evolving in perpetual mutation, developing their own vision of Black Metal.
Choosing, from the start, the total opposite path of regressive bands (who copy what others have done ten years earlier and ten times better), BLUT AUS NORD eschews all the inherent clichés belonging to the genre. BLUT AUS NORD‘s Black Metal approach is a fist in the face of mainstream mediocrity, becoming more macabre and sinister through a blend of innovative musical research, subliminal mental manipulation, and an incredible haunted, nightmarish feeling based on disharmony.
BLUT AUS NORD are creators of a hallucinogenic universe, erasing all preconceived ideas of Black Metal – and extreme music in general. They redefine the rules…
