Son of the hallucinated introspection, nights longer than life, wandering in a cemetery soul. This project is a poisoned chemistry of depressive black metal and hypnotic negativity. Don't expect anyway today's bed-room bands but real project instrumentally human of an individual tremendously aware of the material limits and the body-cage. Let the void manifest. Those who are into the early SHINING material will submit to this self-destruction. Details Artist: Trancelike Void Country: Belgium Genre: Black Metal Year: 2008 Label: De Tenebrarum Principio Format: CD Catalogue no: DTP007 More info: External Track listing Prelude: Descent Part I: Everything Fails Interlude I: Daydream Part II: Fragile Consciousness Interlude II: Nightmare Part III: Total Desolation Epilogue: Escape Review Of the seven tracks, four are instrumentals, and they introduce the three parts. These compositions are made of calmer moments, composed on clean guitars and a touch of atmospheric keyboards. Some words are included on "Epilogue: Escape". The three parts are more of the rawer style, with the highly distorted riffs/arpeggios, subdued drums and bass and ghostly rasps. These songs are lengthier (8-11 minutes) compared to the much shorter 2-3 minute instrumentals. They are also simple, repetitive, hypnotic, and no blast beats or double basses can be heard. Instead, a more appropriate cemetery/doom mid pace was rightly chosen as a mean to "destroy something beautiful". - Metal Crypt 4/5
