Lugubrious Black Metal from Finland, Shatraug's (Sargeist / Horna...) personal project, this infernal compendium contains over 150 minutes of pure grim Black Metal into abysmal darkness! 16 pages booklet, limited edition double CD format. "VRITRA is in essence a ritualistic study into black arts, rites and grimoires all clad in the sound of Black Metal yet not limited to it's archetype in favor of reaching into the darkest foundations of music and fundamental potential therein." Vritra in itself is a study into occultism in it's various pathways, always focused on the darkness and has no real limitations neither on lyrical or musical aspects. As most lyrics are direct latin prayers and incantations Vritra is an invitation and invocation for the nightside to seek abode. In plain terms the music itself can be anything and shift from one phase to another, and not only metal either which is where most of the unique approach lies in. Vritra is never too fast either, delving more into lethargy than exhilaration.
