IMPERIUM appears as a monumental work with 175 minutes playing time. However, the three parts of the journey can also be considered as three separate, self-contained albums.
While "VEHEMENZ" and "RUIN" also lyrically tell a continuous story, the last part "EREMIT" is a single instrumental frenzy. A 53-minute track that on the one hand represents the typical FIUR sound but on the other hand makes it more versatile and multi-layered with many influences than ever before: Furious blast-beat walls, melodic death metal parts, even heavy doom metal, softer parts and more present synthesizers give this journey a progressive touch.
VEHEMENZ
A wandering in the shadows of the powers and forces of nature, which drive the wanderer into the deepest depths where he encounters the destructive nature of man in visions.
RUIN
Nature holds a judgment on mankind, executes the sentence and re-establishes its power.
EREMIT
A swan song to humanity, a last reflection of the only remaining soul on the loss of wonder and harmony with nature.
