PURE WRATH unleashed "THE FORLORN SOLDIER", (EP) 3/6/2020 via DEBEMUR MORTI PRODUCTIONS.
FROM PURE WRATH:
PURE WRATH - formed 2014 in West Java, Indonesia - is the soul-stirring
atmospheric Black Metal project of multi-instrumentalist Januaryo Hardy.
A continuation of preceding EP "The Forlorn Soldier", 3rd full-length
"Hymn to the Woeful Hearts" is a wounded, epically emotive exploration
of timeless grief which ascends to the next level - simmering down past
symphonics and ramping up the bitterness, aggression, textural dynamism
and melancholic conviction.
Again featuring skilled and energetic guest drumwork from Yurii Kononov
(ex-WHITE WARD), PURE WRATH have here produced their deepest, darkest,
most organic and engaging work to date: perfectly balancing howls of
primal rage with tear-stained, hymnal sung passages, simultaneously
vicious and yearning guitar-work, poignant synth, evocative acoustics
and heartfelt thematic realism.
In the words of Hardy:
"The record serves as a dedication to a mother and survivor of the 1965
Indonesian genocide whose son was kidnapped, tortured and brutally
beheaded. For more than fifty years she had to pretend everything was
normal through every second of her sorrow, living under the shadow of
the still-powerful perpetrators."
