01. Temple Koludra - Seven! Sirens! To A Lost Archetype, 2019 CD Album      Transcending Obscurity Records - TOR061      Visit templekoludra.bandcamp.com 2019 is another exceptional year for metal. Actually, the quantity of high quality releases has been so large for the past decade that exceptional is the new normal, but I digress. Among the superb, should-become-a-classic discs funneled in my general direction this year, the amazing, awesome, flabbergasting album by Temple Koludra is sure to sit somewhere in the 2019 zer top ten. Of course, that killer packaging in a perfect digi makes you want to love the album. And once you hear it, your largest smile proves the Universe has heard you: you are floating in the Zeriverse. Temple Koludra offer here one enormous piece of advanced black metal with class and domination. With a construction and general approach not dissimilar from Infernö's and Veilburner's latest output, Seven! Sirens! is a masterpiece of rich, merciless power and eternal soundscapes. The speed is at a maximum while the riffs seem to result from the immense love to hate and some super strong artistic brainpower. The album is highly dynamic and refined through many variations and fertile assemblies of perfectly digested influences: Temple Koludra deliver no barbaric war metal here, but they match its raw intensity from a civilized framework. Alright, stop reading and I'll stop typing shit. You have to listen to this album now! Über multidimensional black metal totalizer triplazer forever!!
