The Bitterness Prophecy is an album by Slovenian black metal artist Tilen Šimon, under his nom de plume Veldes, released on April 28. Almost one hour long, the epic record has only five tracks: the eponymous The Bitterness Prophecy, Seeking the Land Beyond, Thorn Gatherer, Ancient Remedy and Hollow Antlers. Effectively executing a perfect mixture of traditional and atmospheric black metal – occasionally intertwining it with melodic elements –, The Bitterness Prophecy can be described as a formidable masterpiece already in the first track. With increasingly powerful components on the verge of a strength of an imponderable and magnificent originality, the epic elements present on Veldes’ music ostensibly aligns itself with the cohesive intuition of a universe in constant expansion, where the music is the axial force behind the spiritual motion of infinity. With the authentic posture of a real expressive artist, the factual confluence of Šimon’s artistic abilities underlie prominently at the strength of the poetic majesty of his surreal harmonies, ably developed over a hundred galaxies of protuberant and intensely defined sensibilities.   

Encircled by the night of an eternal dream, the music of Veldes, in the Bitterness Prophecy, announces the pungent strike of its harmonious grievances, through the poetic labor of masterly designed guitar lines, that draws in the circles of a fantastic universe the melancholic frame of a gray existence, forever lost in the dust of time. With the proper sentiment of an antagonistic sensibility ever projected into the hearts of misfortune, the music of Veldes dissipates an everlasting trade of beautiful and majestic sorrow in his music, filtrating through the planetary metabolism of his melodic sentences the pragmatic axiom of a world built by memory, condolences, dark romanticism and art.

Exceedingly consistent, underlined by the lucid cosmogony of melodies driven by a sensibility solidified over elevated principles of excellence and sagacity, The Bitterness Prophecy is a majestic pearl of black metal, imperiously designed under a multitude of personal galaxies, adorned by the beauty of an everlasting winter of solitude and reflection.   

One of the most majestic black metal pieces ever to be created in the history of the genre, The Bitterness Prophecy reiterates the strength of black metal as the highest form of artistic expression ever to exist. With Veldes, black metal ceased to be just a musical genre, to be a severe, poetic, delightful and imponderable manifestation of life itself.
