Parasit, by ARKÆON

Parasit

by ARKÆON

supported by

zlatanika There is a deep intricacy and an unbridled energy/emotion in the performance that pushes this into stellar territory. This is exceptional and tramples down and viciously mauls 100% of all the over-rated black metal out there. 10/10 - you must check this gem out!

DeathSeeker Amazing, that is all that needs to be said! From start to finish… AMAZING! Favorite track: Smertens Vilje.

______________________

ARKÆON is a black metal power-trio consisting of three enigmatic, maverick veterans of Danish extreme underground music with related acts counting names such as Tongues, Muspellzheimr, Ærkenbrand, NVLVS, Gespenst, and others.

Spawned from shady congregations on a farm in a Jutlandian forest, since 2019, they have developed the sound of ARKÆON; a ferocious, raw and chaotic black metal that conjures up archaic realms of parasitic organisms, a primordial consumer of light. After releasing three demos, "Parasit" is ARKÆON's debut album, consisting of lengthy experimental compositions that employ a combination of harsh, noisy riffing, high tempo, and refined melodicism.

"Humanity is parasitical to life, as life is parasitical to humanity," ARKÆON says. The rotten Danish lyrics of "Parasit" clarify the band's concept, spewing hateful damnation and accursing the absurdity and vulgarism inherent to the parasitic relationship of modern humanity with the autochthonous forces of organic life.
