Something inherently foul runs in the waters of the Friesland region of The Netherlands; it’s called THE BEAST OF THE APOCALYPSE. Their second offering of audio darkness seeks and explores the realm of the One, the Source, the Ultimate, that which the ancients called Henosis. H.T. Mozes and S. Serpentijn’s, raw-to-the-bone, primitive black metal is once again displayed in full-force and accentuated by passages of grandiose, celestial ambiance. The band dig deeper into the soil of past cults and ancient mystics’ interpretations of the mystery of Henosis. Moreover, each CD features a download card for the band’s unreleased The First Four Trumpets full-length. THE BEAST OF THE APOCALYPSE take the torch of veteran black metal bands Beherit, Samael and Archgoat and carry it proudly in these dark times of the new millennium. Digipak CD.
