Style: Experimental, Avantgarde, Doom Metal
After the successful second album, PYLAR collective returns with a new release: La Gran Obra. This CD is limited to 250 copies (a number that touches upon the threshold of madness) and is inspired by Alchemy.
In the same way as the alchemical process, La Gran Obra is divided into three parts: Nigredo, Albedo and Rubedo. Throughout this piece, the enigmatic heresiarchs manage to manipulate the lost language of colour and the complex esoteric symbolism of ancient science, dropping clues to the follower and allowing them to walk down the path of the ineffable.
The second side, Speculum (ArboNargAl), is a perfect mirror image of the first. In a sense, an infinite loop has been created between the two sides with the purpose of bending time and entering a level of existence where our subconscious memories live.
PYLAR has once more presented us with a veil which we can choose to lift in search of the key to uncover the last of their holy mission.
