Blut Aus Nord - 777 Desanctification LP

Having prophesized impending disaster on predecessor, 777 - Sect(s), Blut Aus Nord moved deeper into a nightmare realm, i.e. reality on The Desanctification, the second installment in their groundbreaking 2011-2012 trilogy. The second chapter illustrates the precise moment when man finds himself embraced in frightening, almost unbearable solitude in a deconstructed world void of all material and spiritual elements.

777 - The Desanctification captures the shocking aftermath of mankind's liberation from the constraints of culture, history and superstition - he is freed of idols but now stands alone in a massive, empty universe. Devoid of emotion; without purpose or reason. It's a terrifying place to be, yet, as modern man, we all reside here. With political, religious and philosophical power negated - and time (our great companion) annihilated - the celestial being is stripped bare, reality altered amid irreversible illumination.

Unmistakably Blut Aus Nord, 777 - The Desanctification is typically swarming, manic and cascading but also more ambient and atmospheric than 777 - Sect(s). With speed and violence eschewed in favor of morose moods and unsettling soundscapes, this journey is meditative, trance like and intriguing. Are you ready to be desanctified?
