Crimson vinyl.

Background information über 'The Crimson Temple'

Greek black metal legends Varathron return with "The Crimson Temple", a masterful exploration of occult themes and mythological darkness that showcases the band's evolution over their three-decade career. This album stands as a testament to the group's ability to weave atmospheric black metal with ancient Greek mysticism, creating an immersive sonic journey through shadowy realms and forgotten temples. The production strikes that perfect balance between raw aggression and atmospheric depth, allowing each ritualistic passage to breathe while maintaining the ferocious intensity that has defined Varathron's sound since their early demos.

From the opening invocation of "Ascension" to the cosmic finale of "Constellation of the Archons", the album unfolds like a dark ceremony, with tracks like "Cimmerian Priesthood" and "Sinners of the Crimson Temple" delivering crushing riffs alongside haunting melodies that echo through ancient corridors. Stefan Necroabyssious's commanding vocals guide listeners through this labyrinth of darkness, while the rhythm section provides a thunderous foundation for the band's most cohesive work in years. The guitar work seamlessly blends tremolo-picked passages with more traditional heavy metal influences, creating a sound that's both unmistakably Varathron and refreshingly contemporary.

For fans of:
Rotting Christ, Necromantia, Bathory, and Primordial
