An album that sounds like a classic from the very first seconds, the full conjuncture of its music is sidelined by the sagacious ambition of its whimsical and lurid, but overwhelmingly vivacious premises. With the somber tissue of harmonies that collide with the embryo of a purely cosmic dissonance, the voracious waves of rage and ravenous intermissions of placid objectivity insinuates at the bottom of a sentimental analysis a style that gracefully wanders between the warm originality of an harmonious humanity, and the sincere splendor of an inspired tradition that corroborates the vivid intensity of a mortifying creativity, that conspicuously oscillates between states of fugacious serenity and despondent chaos.
A formidable, exceedingly patient, sinister and deeply reflexive album, with harmonies revolving over the tenure of romantic, philosophic and sentimental passages, there is an enigmatic and catalyst intensity so sincere on this compositions, that elevates the nobility of the inherently impulsive human rapture into the inevitably abstract, but major levels of artistic sapience that rises from the confluence of agonies ostensibly present on the sound; this masterful convergence of qualities is done with such a degree of technical competence, that is impossible not to fully recognize and appreciate the aggrandizing vicinities of the extraordinary stylish features of this work.
With calmer harmonies that elucidates the intuitive wrath of it’s more afflictive and hostile passages, fulfilled with the natural anger of a correlated ambivalence of discreet organograms of sensitive, but inextricably cadenced intonations, Anthologie Der Abkehr definitely aggregates an outstanding correlation of principles magnanimously applied at the onset of a defiant and original concept, that wonderfully amalgamates the soul of the essence of black metal with the content of a more intricate, consistent and remarkable style.
