Mortum Exabyss
Drone Of Gods

Album US 2011 on Exabyss Records label
Electronic (Dark Ambient, Experimental)

Double Digipak. "The first six song are taken from the Drone Of Gods demo album. Cold and dark atmospheric tunes filled with obscurity and fear. Since for the humanity the fear always comes from the unknown and inexplicable this record fortunately does not use any human voices, vocals which makes the project perfect for listening. The songs such as Drone Of Gods or Primordial Demon lead us into an ancient darkness that makes us forget the tribulations of the current age. A dark journey into the unknown. However from the track Those Who Never Sleep something changes and a new dimension of darkness arises. Arch Manifest is like a trip to the stars. It is more colorful then all the previous songs mentioned above. The last and at the same time the longest track from the demo is Bones Wrapped In Flesh. The track that calls the human the creator of everything and the final destroyer as well. The next song collection taken from the demo Souls Abandoned which record actually is the voices of madness and the real fear. Cold destruction and frozen emotional ambient. The human affection generated by the faith already collapsed, the faith that is not of this world but a rotting dimension. The realm that freezes our souls. The second CD starts with tracks taken from The Fragments Of Fear demo release. The self title track presents a nice well sound designed keyboard theme that definitely has the atmosphere of the 18th century. The age when death was an art. Frightening tunes based on fear presented by brilliant sound effects and song structures. The Endemic Fear is just filled with agony and loneliness. All moments from this part of the album is full of scary distant and obscured voices. When we hit the song Jesus Dislocated On The Cross right away we realize the relentless souls finally found their rest. Acoustic guitar song built up with nice melodies which is ultimately surprising in this content. All the songs left on the disc line up whispers and emotional fragments of the fear with effects and sounds so typical of the industrial music genre. With the slogan Save The World Kill All The Gods the listener experiences a very hard time to get in the mood proper enough for the entire album but still that line propagates the concept idea hiding behind the scene." / Subterranean Tenebris Fanzine Hungary
