"When Dark
Ambient meets Industrial Deviance" KSTK006 -
CD version contains a explicit video clip released by Baron
Saturne
"Humanity Needs No Funeral", the first full-length album
from AERE AETERNUS, was released on the French label
Kaosthetik. With a multi-national and eclectic lineup, the
band comprises Alex (MACABRE OMEN, THE ONE, RAZOR OF OCCAM),
Claudio Alcara (FROSTMOON ECLIPSE, STROSZEK), Cyr (DARK
SANCTUARY) and Radu. Drawing on the wide range and
considerable musical experience of its members, AERE
AETERNUS creates a dark, disturbing atmosphere that probably
best fits within the ambient and minimalist genres, and
which the band themselves describe as "half misanthropic
ritual and half sex ritual."
This is insane. Try to imagine a inhuman mix of ritual sex,
slow death, fear and darkest ambiant, electronic /
industrial landscapes, depressive folk touches, morbid
noises and tortured voices... Reeking of the most perfect
misanthropy and way more obscure than all those so-called "drone"
projects and black metal non-senses... I’m pretty surprised
by such a release, especially because this comes from France
(yes you read it). Support this sick disc which comes in a
nice digipak and with a more than adequate bonus video,
nothing to add, this kills. "Life is nothing else but a
parody". www.church-ov-ze-dead.com
The dominant atmosphere combines a sense of impending
insanity with sexual deviancy and a large dollop of
occultism, creating a dark and troubling misanthropic
sojourn that is relatively unique. The final track is
probably the most musical, as it is centred on a guitar
arpeggio, but no such concessions to convention are present
elsewhere on this deeply troubling disk. The accompanying
video of "Invocation" shows a Satanic ritual in all its
kitchsy glory. Recommended for those looking for something a
darker than the usual entities.
