CRIMSON MOON - Mors Vincit Omnia (CD)

The legendary CRIMSON MOON return with fourth full-length 'Mors Vincit Omnia' (death conquers all), eight epic tracks of propulsive occult grandeur, constructed in homage to Azrael: Angel of Death, Destruction and Renewal.

CRIMSON MOON were formed 1994 in the US as the magickal solo black metal project of multi-instrumentalist Scorpios Androctonus before relocating to Germany in 1998 and evolving into a full band of menacing distinctiveness.

This newest set of mystical hymns is expertly built from punchy second-wave riffs, cathedral-sized hooks, cosmic synthscapes, organ adornments and ritualistic choral incantations as catchy as they are cryptic.

Driven forward by sterling session drum work from Blastum (AOSOTH, ANTAEUS) and a bass-heavy Hybreed Studios production job which achieves the perfect dynamism between power and ambience, obscure themes are illuminated in a devilish attack of bludgeoningly focused songwriting.

Guest vocalists on the album include Proscriptor (ABSU), Lord Angelslayer (ARCHGOAT), Ixithra (DEMONCY) and Phaesphoros (KAWIR) who in addition to mixing the record also performs wooden recorder.

'Mors Vincit Omnia' - "In reverence towards the Mortal Omega. Captured in an audial aura of those to embark the vessel of Charon"
