Background information über 'Ars Moriendi (Re-Release)'

Lunar Aurora's "Ars Moriendi" stands as a monumental achievement in atmospheric black metal, showcasing the German band's mastery of blending raw aggression with haunting melodies. Originally released in the late 90s, this re-release brings back one of the most underrated gems from the second wave of black metal. The album opens with the brief but ominous title track before diving headfirst into the relentless "Dämonentreiber", where tremolo-picked guitars weave through blast beats like winter winds through dead forests. Tracks like "Kältetod" and "Black Aureole" demonstrate the band's ability to create vast soundscapes that feel both claustrophobic and infinite.

What sets "Ars Moriendi" apart from its contemporaries is Lunar Aurora's sophisticated approach to atmosphere building. The lengthy "Geist Der Nebelsphären" serves as the album's centerpiece, a sprawling seven-minute journey through ethereal passages and crushing heaviness that perfectly encapsulates the band's vision. The production maintains that raw, organic feel essential to the genre while allowing each instrument to breathe within the mix. Songs like "Flammen Der Sehnsucht" showcase the band's knack for memorable riffing without sacrificing the otherworldly atmosphere that makes their sound so compelling.

For fans of:
Emperor, Burzum, Darkthrone, Immortal and Blut Aus Nord
