Die Lederpredigt

by Folterkammer

supported by

Bloedarend Relentless, stacatto speed/black metal, combined with clean arias as well as ferocious vocal deliveries that remind me of Diamanda Galás and Hekte Zaren, is what Folterkammer does. Favorite track: Die Hymne.

bcb723 Zachary Ezrin from Imperial Triumphant leads one of the more mysterious and unusual releases of 2020. Black metal lines fused with the epic operatic vocals of Andromeda Anarchia... it works way better than it sounds on paper. Fantastic sound also. An avant-garde left turn that is well worth investigating further. Favorite track: Die Hymne.

dirkmadness Opera meets Black Metal in German. An unlikely but amazing combination I didn't know I needed. Favorite track: Das Magnificat.

about

Folterkammer (German for Torture Chamber) is the project of Andromeda Anarchia, Zachary Ezrin (Imperial Triumphant), Darren Hanson, and Brendan McGowan. Their debut full-length Die Lederpredigt (The Leather Sermon) bridges the gap between traditional second-wave black metal and opera by layering other-worldly vocal performances that range from powerful and operatic to scathing screams, coupled with filthy tremolo riffs and blasting percussion.

This debut album is a statement against the abusive nature of the oppressive systems of religion, authority, and blind faith, all through the voice of a monstrous, seductive goddess looking to inflict pain on her submissive creations. Deconstructing and manipulating the concepts of religious symbolism and the divine nature of feminine power as the demure nurturing and protective force. Instead transforming those concepts into monstrous beauty, dominant and destructive. To add to the poetic symbolism of the lyrical content all lyrics are written and performed in German, a language that lends itself perfectly to the dramatic and dynamic nature of both the operatic and harsh vocals.

Thou and Emma Ruth Rundle are not playing opposites, nor even allies on this record. They are constantly swapping roles and spotlights. At times, Rundle leads while Thou backs. At others, Thou is center stage. It's a magnificent, ego-less union. felixwav
