On this auspicious Saturn Day and planetary hour of Venus, under the gaze of the all-devouring Lord of Time, O.S.I. solemnly inaugurates the birth of (ΙΑΩ) BAPHE METIS with blood-stained sickle and hourglass in hand. By the word of the Abraxian/Janus-faced God whom the Earth and Moon both serve, channeled through the star above the soul’s eye, we presence the Devil of the astral light to receive its saturnine revelation and hereby exclaim: Solve et Coagula.
The Luciferic Impulse burns and the horned torch of wisdom is lit. Seeds of death are sewn as the sands of the hourglass trickle and a new cycle dissolves all past impurities. The sickle tills the fertile earth nourished by dead husks and reaps fruits of the fallen to fuel rebirth. As Kronos-Saturnus devoured his own begotten flesh and blood in symbolic self annihilation, so too shall we consume our own to initiate renewal. Time is the eater of All.
This approaches terminal sonic extremity. Further advancement of the style risks devolution into mere static/noise. The four-armed Shiva herself (चतुर्भुज) must be behind the drum-kit considering the speed of the gravity-blasts. Sugammadex
Not many bands can keep my attention pretty much solely using synths, but this entity that is Lamp of Murmuur can do anything and evoke a wonderful atmosphere and showcase their ability to blend melody with a wall of static noise Xra Diabolist
