BLACK FUNERAL - Flames of Samum CD
CD, Dark Adversary Productions, Jewel case w/clear tray, 12 page booklet, Ltd Ed of 333, 2024
US Black Metal/Dark Ambient
'For over three decades Black Funeral has channeled currents of pure darkness, and this new invocation is one of their most powerful and sinister albums to date.
This sonic offering to the Jinn is raw, vampyric & occult Black Metal that is laced with dark ambient passages and ritual soundscapes.
Recorded over the cursed first half of 2024, "Flames of Samūm" is dedicated to the Mulūk al-Arḍīya, the Seven Earthly Jinn Kings, each attributed to both the seven days of the week and the planets.
The Mulūk al-Arḍīya possess authority and infernal power that is both malignant and beneficial. The essence of the Earthly Kings is reflective and perhaps emanated from the Unseen and Imaginal world that is both real and not real, existing as a liminal power so beholden to the invisible, scorching winds and fire of Samūm.' - blackfuneral.bandcamp.com
