Many have attempted to explore philosophic themes through music, yet just like the human nature they claimed to critique, most often time only lifeless notes and ludicrous narcissism remain.
Ascension, as Vitriolic Sage's highly anticipated debut full length, quite on the contrary, is one extraordinary paradigm in which metaphysical matters naturally entwined with its swirling melodicism, with no excessive pretentiousness, an everlasting spiral where everything is perfectly balanced-music, concept, storytelling, emotions, all genuinely fused together into this 7-track long play of pure riff mass.
Unlike what he has achieved in Vitriolic Sage' previous EP Enlightenment, which was more or less an earnest tribute to the glacial majesty of the 90s Scandinavian scene, the songwriting and overall production on Ascension are much more nuanced and varied, with many hints towards the virulent mélancolie from the foul soils of France, as well as the obscurerites of those Icelandic black hymns, yet retaining something that is still unique per se. This is an album where listeners are truly seized by the ravaging and hellish maelstrom unleashed through its cathartic war cry and glorious melodies: an astonishing consistency from start to finish, while the rest philosophical lyricisms about absurdity and death were devoured and become asone, together with the protagonist who embarked upon this journey of self-destructive salvation, dissolved into the Light Ultimate: and all the rest shall be perished.
Pest Productions will release Ascensionin the format of digipack CDs, limited to 300 copies. Don't miss out this truegem, highly recommended!
