Albums This Illusion Of Humainy

Press Reviews This debut cd is in many ways definitely worth listening to. Their music they self called 'spherical dark metal' is a total package of spheres and ambiances, that is professionally produced by Patrick Harreman (Moon of Sorrow). The bone marrow grunt of Martijn van Rhee is whole attraction on it's own. This album contains especially a few guitar solo's that stand out by their beautiful melody. Maleficium has in the person of Angelique Overbeek a woman who sings with a strong voice above the musical 'violence'. This debut cd forms in many ways an outstanding starting-point.
