Metaorganism - I:Baphomet [Some Place Else - 2008]

I:Baphomet delivers six slices of damned, blacked yet often fairly shiftily moving dark ambience. The tracks are simplistic yet memorable in their execution and above all thick with dark and sinister intent.

Each track has at it’s centre an heavy ‘n’ sinister bassy analogue synth throb or drone which is revolved continually with menacing intent & often seems to hit you at gut rumbling level. To this main synth loop are added smaller electronic & atmospheric details like; deep and dark groans/ rumbles, dark brass like pitches, edgy feedback trails and general heady and pitch black atmospherics. As the albums title suggest this would be an wonderful soundtrack to a damned and yet quite active blacked ceremony, where gowned figures bow down  and perform before a blood coved mendes goat headed man thing.

A damned, blackly atmospheric and at times eerier collection of deep ‘n’ sinister analogue heavy ambient sound dwells and rituals. With the tracks been both knee deep in grim atmospherics and highly memorable too.
