about

Where All Rivers Merge takes on a dark philosophy of where all paths lead, whether natural, spiritual or a worriers path, all end and all essence converges to a great surging river over time. A place where all paths lead through the gates of death or greater.

The lengthy, fickle recording and mixing for this album has lead to some jarring changes in sound through it's many tracks but the themes of life, nature and many fantastical dark stories reigns true it it's walls of sound.
Some tracks were recorded, written or even mixed years apart. Though my recording styles and habits have changed over time, along with the gear I use, I still wanted to keep the same vision I had years ago and style consistency. But at last it is finally released to the world.
This is the first part of this twin concept album release of raging raw atmospheric black metal and peaceful fantasy/medieval style ethereal ambience, the second part will be released hopefully some time next year or later.

Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this. Luke

Short and sweet! Love the cover art as well as the black metal contained within. Mid-paced with some blast beats and variety thrown in. Just the way I like my black metal. The CD even included a personalized note. Look forward to hearing more in the future. Cheers! Sean TPLTR
