Temple Of The Beast - 'Geminian Arcana' LP

140 Black vinyl edition with insert limited to 200 copies

TEMPLE OF THE BEAST is the work of Blackthorn (Thornspawn). But those expecting a blitzed assault of classic Norsecore will be in for a surprise with TEMPLE OF THE BEAST: oft-lumbering ritualism that slithers its way into hammering primitivism, recalling the earliest works of Samael, Mystifier, Demoncy, and Drawing Down the Moon-era Beherit but exuding its own strange, ethereal identity. Five monolithic hymns are contained herein - the band's full potential is displayed in diabolic, Dionysian splendour. Indeed, TEMPLE OF THE BEAST's central themes are arcane magick and bacchanalian bloodletting, ancient lore and mysteries only found in the innermost catacombs. Tones are tar-thick yet somehow atmospheric, layering the patient pulse with ritual bells and cosmic synths.
