Blut Aus Nord - 777 - The Desanctification by dmp666
The album will be available in a six-panel digipack CD and noble Gatefold 12" LP on November 11th (November 29th in North America) via Debemur Morti Productions.
According to the official press release, 777 - The Desanctification illustrates the precise moment when man finds himself embraced in frightening, almost unbearable solitude in a deconstructed world void of all material and spiritual elements. The record captures the shocking aftermath of mankind's liberation from the constraints of culture, history and superstition; he is freed of idols but now stands alone in a massive, empty universe. Devoid of emotion, without purpose or reason. It's a terrifying place to be, yet, as modern man, we all reside here. With political, religious and philosophical power negated - and time (our great companion) annihilated - the celestial being is stripped bare, reality altered amid irreversible illumination. Unmistakably Blut Aus Nord, 777 - The Desanctification is typically swarming, manic and cascading but also more ambient and atmospheric than 777 - Sect(s). With speed and violence eschewed in favor of morose moods and unsettling soundscapes, this journey is meditative, trancelike and intriguing.
The Tracklisting is as follows:
'Epitome VII'
'Epitome VIII'
'Epitome IX'
'Epitome X'
'Epitome XI'
'Epitome XII'
'Epitome XIII'
