ENSLAVED - Monumension (CD)

Monumension stands as one of the most intricate, demanding, and rewarding albums in the annals of Black Metal history. It unfurls as a concept album interwoven with threads of Northern Mythology, Rune Mysticism, Surrealism, and unadulterated chaos. A dark resonance reminiscent of early Unleashed and Grave recordings emanates from the low-tuned guitars. The intricate and mesmerizing drumwork, along with the harsh and fervent vocals, penetrates deep into your psyche. This album has the uncanny ability to seep beneath your skin and leave an indelible mark.

Tracks such as "The Voices" and "Vision: Sphere of Elements" burst into existence with ferocious and unforgettable guitar riffs that linger in your consciousness long after the final notes fade away. Each composition on this meticulously crafted masterpiece brims with musical concepts and audacious experimentation, always maintaining a strong undercurrent of brutality and chaos. Monumension undoubtedly stands as a monumental achievement from a legendary band operating at the zenith of their creative prowess.
