Extended info

Formed in 1995 with the release of the "Kakos Draconis" demo,
Akrabu has been the musical outlet of Scorpios Androctonus (Crimson Moon, Sabnack, Possession Ritual).
Consisting entirely of acoustic instruments, Akrabu has continued with this tradition throughout its recordings,
avoiding the use of synthesizers or sampled/synthetic sounds.
Based on Sumerian lore/ritual and mythology, the music of Akrabu is intended to evoke a meditative state
utilizing a variety of acoustic guitars, exotic stringed and wind instruments, various percussion, voices and field recordings.
The hour long album "Kispu Ina Ina Nekelmu" was recorded entirely with acoustic instruments,
chanting and voices without the use of synthesizers.
It was originally released on Dark Age Productions in 1996 as a cassette covered by printed paper sleeve,
wrapped in snakeskin, all in black velveteen bag with printed booklet in a limited edition of 100 copies
and it was reissued on it's 22nd anniversary with a different cover, again on a cassette and for the first time on a CD format.
Recorded at the Serpent Chamber, Covina California on analog 4-track in 1996 and performed by Scorpios Androctonus
with the help of Darke Shadoe on female vocals, conjurations and invocations.

немного раздолбайская, но любопытная вещица.

This is one of the best DAP releases from back then,
alongside Equitant - The Great Lands of Minas Ithil and Valor - La Lune Noire.
And of course the best release from Akrabu, since afterwards this album the band moved to more acoustic paths,
removing most of the dark/ritualistic elements.
