VINDENSANG - New Album Complete; Details Available
October 7, 2008, 16 years ago
Pennsylvania-based black metallers VINDENSANG have finally completed their highly-anticipated debut full-length, "collecting seventy minutes' worth of atmospheric, introspective forest hymns and paeans to the beauty of nature and intensities of human emotions," according to a press release.
Titled Terminus: Rebirth in Eight Parts…, the album's concept is described by mainman J. Neblock as "a musical odyssey into the mind and body of the labyrinth traveler at the threshold of his or her own death; approaching the terminus- the point in both time and space at which one's energies are purged from the confines of the cage-like human body and released again back into the cosmos."
Three years in the making, Terminus: Rebirth in Eight Parts… was conceived, written, and recorded by J. Neblock at Woodland Studios, between September of 2005 and August of 2008, and was mixed by Neblock himself. The album was mastered by Glenn Barratt at MorningStar Studios, during September 2008, with additional help from Dave Gerhart.
