Adorned path of Stillness » marks the return of the neoclassical and dark ambient music act Day Before Us on the Argentina based label Twilight Records, in collaboration with GH Records. This is their sixth full length release. This new effort is an enthralling soundtrack for dark, solemn, thoughtful times. It incorporates acoustic and lyrical sections next to electronic textures and diverse processed sounds.

The general atmosphere offers precious moments of introspective melancholia punctuated by mysteriously hypnotic instrumentals. This is a multifaceted album but also remarkably cohesive with many dynamics, emotional movements that will ravish fans of haunting and touching cinematic music in a rather classical mood.

(After 18 years) Furvus returns with an new majestic album full of sonorous shades, orchestral / choral arrangements and an epic vein worthy of a soundtrack. Highly recommended for all fans of orchestral and epic Neoclassic in the vein of bands like Elend, Death in June, Rosa Crux….

“Aes Grave” is the follow-up to the majestic “Deflorescens Iam Robur” album by FURVUS from 1999 (which still is considered by critics and listeners as one of the cornerstones of the Neo-Classical music).

What the time doesn’t erase, is strengthened in the memory: the memory of loved ones, of lost faith and the blood shed
which is now outlined through this journey inside the music and moral heritage of the past, going beyond the Pillars of Hercules of any religious or political belief.
From theophany to solipsism, the wayfarer’s catharsis takes shape across the project’s sound textures, epic and introspective as yesterday,but today also tinged with shades ranging from conviviality to more majestic chorality.
All made with a balanced use of computer (each vocal part and acoustic instrument is sung / played by the musician) on a substrate of Concrete processing. A sound katabasis down to the hell of one’s emotional intelligence with an obol perhaps too expensive to be paid …
