IRON BONEHEAD PRODUCTIONS is proud to present a new mini-album from the legendary BLACK FUNERAL, The Dust and Darkness, on CD and 12" vinyl formats.

Formed in 1993, BLACK FUNERAL are one of the founders of American black metal. The band's first two albums, 1995's Vampyr - Throne of the Beast and 1997's Empire of Blood, are widely considered black metal classics, and are among the earliest releases on the cult Full Moon Productions label. Since the beginning, the band has been guided by the boundless vision of one Michael Ford (AKA Akhtya Nachttoter), who has concurrently garnered international respect as a leading author on Luciferianism and occultism. And although many lineups have come and gone since those pioneering first two lineups, BLACK FUNERAL found its strongest formation yet with 2016's Ankou and the Death Fire. Released to widespread acclaim by IRON BONEHEAD, the album saw the inclusion of Drowning the Light mastermind Azgorh Drakenhof handling guitar, bass, and keyboards. As such, musically, Akkou and the Death Fire was a purely black metal record brimming with medieval majesty and malnourished misery, a blackflame both bright and bleary, all laced with Ford's characteristically chilling ambient soundscapes. In many ways, it was a reinvigoration of the classic BLACK FUNERAL sound, and that forward momentum continues unabated with The Dust and Darkness.

Recorded 2017 in Australia and the United States, The Dust and Darkness is a recalling and vampyric sonic ritual of Hittite, Hurrian, Canaanite, and ancient Syrian Underworld offerings and necromancy. The title "Dankuis Daganzipas" is the Hittite Underworld, "The Dark Earth," and is the dwelling place of spirits and chthonic deities who desired blood as their primary offering besides incense and libations. The Lady of the Underworld, Allani, is the ancient Hurrian goddess who is a type of psychopomp as a solar deity who guides the dead into the Underworld. Allani is identical to the Mesopotamian Ereskigal. The god "Chemosh of the Dust and Darkness" is an epithet for an Ugaritic deity of the Underworld who is similar to both Baal of Peor (Belphegor) and Nergal. His name was associated with elements of the underworld and "Bird of Prey." As such, the four songs comprising The Dust and Darkness sonically surge with grim abandon and majestic melancholy, unflinching in their familiarity but only because this is the BLACK FUNERAL whose name is legendry within the darkest depths of the black metal underground. It is altogether 17 minutes of invocation and seduction, exacted by deft hands well versed in the blackest of magick. Here, there is only The Dust and Darkness...

Alexis The Best, You're welcome, как говорится. У меня ещё много стаффа сентябрьского, октябрьского, плюс кое-что есть за ноябрь.

Очень надеюсь, что Hells Headbangers Records пришлют новый Cultes des Ghoules, ибо они вроде как в издании релиза участие принимают.

I listened and didn't find it too interesting. It's not really something I'd listen to many times on repeat. Just standard black with nothing that really stands out.

I spent this morning listening to Mörk Gryning albums so maybe after listening to such perfect Black Metal, this ep sounded to me worse than it actually is.

Согласен, этот релиз не несет такой ценности как прошлый, 2007, Аз Ай Дахак и тд. Похоже на невошедшее на прошлый (ну или сделанное по той же схеме). Что само по себе неплохо. Но прямо событием для поклонников БФ и меня в тч не будет, тк Драунинзэлайта в рамках БФ достаточно наверное.

Chasm, Мне кажется, что данный EP — это превью к чему-то более значимому, что у группы припасено на следующий год. Надеюсь, что мое "кажется" в итоге подтвердится.

Форд никогда не страдал отсутствием идей и делал каждую свою Работу разноплановой с огромным концептуальным багажом. Восточные мотивы сего творчества обретают Законченную форму религиозных и культурных Поисков, начатых на альбоме Ankou And The Death Fire
"Я всегда стремлюсь создавать звуковые миры вдохновляющей темноты, буквально сферы звука, которые затягивают вас в путешествие. Я вдохновлен сделать это сейчас более, чем когда либо прежде"
Думаю, это не превью, а Завершение, подводя итог тематики последнего альбома блестящей клавишной эпитафией Mistress of the Pit

I bet writing that promo text took more time than listening to the EP. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile1.gif)

Всё бы ничего, вот только "сатанизм" у этого Форда очень смешной...почти как у Ла Вея (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/25.gif)

Со времён "Vampyr - Throne of the Beast / Empire of Blood" (что в общем-то одно и то же) первая работа, в которой музыкальная часть мне безоговорочно и полностью понравилась.
С "Ankou...", как ни странно, явных параллелей я не заметил, куда больше возникло ассоциаций с классическим звучанием Black Funeral 90-х.
Весьма символично в этом случае и возвращение к оригинальному лого.

короче, почитал знающих здесь людей, переслушал заново.
почерк есть, стиль есть, был предвзят(а впрочем как всегда ага)
бабу бы только убрать и полностью окей всё.
