As presaged by 2016's Pimean Hohto debut EP, which was reissued on CD and 12" vinyl formats in 2018 by HELTER SKELTER, INFERNARIUM's full-length Kadotuksen Harmonia is an icy yet burning-hot blast of second-wave black metal classicism. Hailing from the black metal hotbed of Finland, INFERNARIM indeed exhibit many of their homeland's foremost traits - filthy texture, dungeon-bred dynamics, intensity that's equally fiery and freezing cold - but the power-trio uniquely underpin proceedings with a tangible sense of gloom as well as tasteful colorings of mystical synth. As a debut album, Kadotuksen Harmonia is a powerful, profound statement, exhibiting a mature sense of depth despite utilizing the most traditional of tools. Black metal is a rich language, after all, and already INFERNARIUM are quite adept speakers. With Kadotuksen Harmonia will INFERNARIUM hereby soon be included among such esteemed names as Sargeist, Horna, Behexen, and Baptism!
