Background information about 'Summoning Eternity'
There is a particular kind of dread that only a debut can conjure, and Mists have bottled it whole on "Summoning Eternity". This Belgian/American trio is not a casual meeting of minds: H. carries the spectral weight of Oerheks and Silver Knife, C.V.B. brings the ritual gravity of Aerdryk and Wolvennest, and S.G. arrives from the haunted chambers of Vox Clamantis and Dashuyn. Three resumes steeped in the underground, one shared obsession, and a record that sounds like it was recorded in a crypt that nobody has opened in decades.
The description the band offers is disarmingly simple, an eerie path through broken tombstones and forgotten crypts, and honestly, that is exactly what you hear. Guitars drift and scrape like wind through iron fences, the low end rumbles somewhere beneath the floor, and the vocals feel less sung than intoned, half buried, half beckoning. What makes it work is restraint. Nothing here is rushed. The songs let atmosphere do the heavy lifting, layering cold melody over slow, deliberate motion until the whole thing takes on the quality of a ritual you wandered into by accident and cannot quite leave.
It is the sort of record that rewards patience and headphones in equal measure, one that reveals new shadows on every pass. For a first statement, it is remarkably assured, and it makes the wait for whatever comes next feel far too long.
For fans of: Wolvennest, Oerheks, Urfaust, The Ruins of Beverast, Lunar Aurora
