jobionekenobi After getting re-obsessed with Ved Buens Ende's Written in Waters I was craving something just as unique. This album absolutely satisfied this craving and I am blown away with how unique and jam packed with variance this album is. This may not be everyone's cup of tea but this is going on my AOTY list. Favorite track: Harbinger (Of The Fallen Hearts).

____________________

ALKUHARMONIAN KANTAJA (in English, "One Who Carries The Original Harmony") is a fresh perspective back into the world of avantgarde black metal of the days gone. An entity born in Oulu, Finland in 2020 by J. Usurper of KHANUS fame (bass, guitars, vocals), complimented by the likewise Oulu native S. Redeemer (drums) and reaching its full potential through the Swiss based D. Harbinger (keys).

"Shadowy Peripherals" is ALKUHARMONIAN KANTAJA's ambitious debut album, an introspective journey deep into the depths of the human mind, the spirit, the self. A duality of ýearning and satisfaction, a deep dive into our primal beastly animal nature with glimpses into the soothing nostalgic realms of the mind, dwelling in toxic depressive darkness on a quest for something that perhaps never even existed.

A playful yet bitter play of words and sounds of human nature in constant conflict. Of disappointments carried through generations and the search for eternal understanding. From the mundane observations of this carnal reality into pondering the universal truths of existence we all might realize one day (maybe too late), that which we all carry within us - The Original Harmony.

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

What a BEAST of an album. When it comes to blending black metal and mathcore, these guys and Hoplites are the clear leaders of the pack. This album is sheer annihilation of everything in it's path. Pure chaos and destruction. And it is beautiful. Ryan
