It's harrowing, evil stuff, and while it's undeniably heavy, it doesn't resort to mindless bludgeoning like many modern black metal bands do. Yet this description doesn't quite convey how unique this album is. The basics of this album is an odd, very dissonant, tone-warped guitar sound, complex programmed drums, frequent ambient interludes surrounding the harsher numbers, topped with mostly typical (and often processed) black metal rasps, with songs ranging in tempo from rapid-fire speed to almost doom droning.
But “Umbra Luciferi” trumps them both with atmospheres so thick and consuming, you’ll be scrambling for your trusty scythe to cut through it.One of France's true innovators in the black metal scene, Blut Aus Nord came into being in the mid-nineties and released a few albums to some fanfare, but it's The Work That Transforms God, released in 2003, where things really get interesting.
“Tyrant of Luminous Darkness” uses similar techniques, but its build doesn’t quite pack the emotional Watain-likepunch of its counterpart. “Pentagram of the Black Earth” rocks your possessed corpse with a Rituale Satanum-inspired riff before setting up a tremolo-led build that grows every time you listen to it. The latter two have some of the heaviest Behexen-meets- Gorgoroth riffs on the album, but are somehow capable of restraining them when the melodic interludes come into play. “Umbra Luciferi,” “Tyrant of Luminous Darkness,” and “Pentagram of the Black Earth” also shop at the Behexen Market, and provide the album with thick atmospheres and memorable guitar work. It has monstrous riffs, church-bell chimes, and a conclusion wracked with hate and pain. Like the overture of a musical, “The Poisonous Path” teases the listening of things to come. The Poisonous Path kicks off with a track as stocked as a one-stop shop.
