The new album is a musical departure for HACAVITZ. While long players like 2005's Venganza, 2007's Katun, and 2010's Metzli Obscura were grounded in bestial Death/Black Metal, on Darkness Beyond the group has shed it Death Metal influences in favor of superbly crafted Black Metal hymns. Ferocity and grimness permeate what turns out to contain the most memorable material of HACAVITZ's outstanding body of work.
