New Music Download: Twilight Ophera

So, Twilight Ophera has named their new album Twilight Ophera And The Order Of The Sanguine Diadem present Descension. :lol:

Ridiculous.

Anyway, there is one of the few black metal bands I can dig on, mainly because they mix it up with death metal, symphonic bits, melodic parts and clean singing. It's not all insane! I only own The End Of The Halycon Age, however, so their two previous albums may suck for all I know. What I do know is that The End Of The Halycon Age kicks a tremendous amount of ass. Descension, on the other hand, kicks even more ass!! This CD fucking rules!

Not being even a small-time black metal fan I can't really give any comparisons, but I do suggest you check them out! =)

Taken from Descension (60-second clips):

01 CHARAGMA
02 HOLLOW MOVEMENTS OF FLESH
03 SUICIDE HARLEQUIN
04 MIRAGE OF MOIRA
05 BORN OF BRIMSTONE WOMB
06 SULPHUR SPIRAL
07 SANGUINE DIADEM
08 WRAITH REVERIES
09 SYN
10 SILHOUETTES OF PARADOX CRAFT

Taken from The End Of The Halycon Age (full songs):

GOTHIC PRELUDE OF CAPRICIOUS EQUANIMITY
CHAOSWORM
PSEUDOGODS

They have that wacky "evil funfair ride" feel that's quite nice.

The clips sounds nice. But about black metal, don't you even like Taake, Ken?

That must be the case, the have made three brilliant albums with Nattestid being my favourite.

On to the topic again. I've listened to Descension a couple of times now and it's an awesome album. The first song Charagma feels really fresh with that dist guitar sound along the song (I'm not very good with musical terms).

I remember hearing a song by them long ago and digging the hell out of it, but never being able to find the CD.

Awesome shit, though. :dio:
