Dear listeners.
'Verferum' is an ode to what seems to be never-ending and reveals itself to be short and finite. Memento mori.
We take funeral doom as a rite. It is a magnificent shrine in a mysterious wild nature which we enter with sacred fear. The church organ is an instrument of celebration of the moments like this. Organ as a brutal mass bearing the guitar and vocal compositions, organ as an ethereal sigh, distant chants. Sharpened senses. Hope. Waiting. Atonement.
We pay homage to J. S. Bach. His immortal work was our great inspiration, especially Prelude & Fugue C minor BWV546 and Passacaglia C minor BWV582.
The album is to be listened loud.
Yours Faithfully – Quercus

EVIL DEAD
by EMBRIONAL
Tracklist:
1.Ending up on The Gallow 04:50
2.Vileness... 04:50
3.Inhuman Lusts 04:06
4.Lord of Skulls 05:28

6.Endless Curse 04:12
7.Abomination 04:30
8.Damned by Dogmas 06:19
EVIL DEAD is the title of Embrional's third full length featuring 8 tracks that follow up on the horde's death metal insanity, much more mature in terms of composition in comparison to the band's previous albums.
The music on the record is not only an expression of the band's explorations but, above all, a manifestation of the dormant emotions, angst and darkness. It's an album most diversified in terms of composition, but also a piece of very straightforward and devastating death metal. It contains both very heavy and crushing, depressing sounds, and maniacal twists and turns. EVIL DEAD is not an album that flows peacefully but leaves you disturbingly craving for more...
Find out for yourself, enter the abyss of the poisoned sounds of EVIL DEAD!

PRESS RELEASE:
Band: Dictator
Album: Dysangelist [re-issue]
Country: Cyprus
Genre: Black/Funeral Doom Metal, Dark Ambient
Label: Aesthetic Death
Release date: January 7th, 2019
The responsibility of the artist is to be true, nothing more and nothing less. Even if that means to turn the eye inwards to inspect and dissect whatever lies within him which is petty, self-centred, extraneous. Dictator, rummaging, at first, through the unrefined turmoil of adolescent angst, finally, through no lack of painful introspection, managed to crystallise a vision into something which transcends both the creator and the listener. Now his blood and toil belong to us. Here, reverence and horrific dissonance find themselves in an unlikely alliance. What God transpires through the creation’s lyricism is not a God the common mind can bear. And what better way to bring Him into consciousness than music? For it is only music which overcomes matter on this earth. As such, the music itself is not an exercise in poignant self-indulgence but rather, a litany, an act of audial martyrdom if you will. The choice of labelling is incidental, funereal, suicidal, whatever. The point is that the man plunged his hands into the heart of the beast and held it for us bloody and obscene. Blinding to the many, liberating to the few, there are indeed precious shards of light which escape between these sombre notes and penetrate most acutely, almost welcomingly. That is the nature of Dysangelist, it cannot reveal, only awaken.
