Ante-Inferno are pulling no punches this time around with their third album. Now with a fully established line-up, the four-piece have delivered a malevolent hammer strike to the face of all who thought they would continue to mellow after the success of the atmospheric and otherworldly “Antediluvian Dreamscapes”.
The album’s nightmarish cover art (from the masterful mind of Khaos Diktator Design), perfectly sums up the album’s sonic approach. An ode to madness, mental illness, death obsession and unfettered suicidal despair, “Death’s Soliloquy” harnesses the bestial might of traditional black metal and intricately weaves it with the haunting majesty of the atmospheric sound the band is known for, and in doing so takes the listener on an anguished, hysterical descent into the blackened emptiness of the grave.
“The album’s theme is death viewed through different lenses and experiences”, the band explains. “A soliloquy is where a character in a play speaks their thoughts aloud, but they’re speaking to themselves rather than to the audience. So this is like Death speaking on behalf of those who have died, reliving the final moments of their lives and what led them to that point – because the dead can’t speak, but Death was there with every one of them at the end.”
In the run-up to the album’s release, the band previously released an artwork video for the opening track “The Cavernous Blackness of Night” and a “Cold. Tenebrous. Evil” music video.
