Two of the majestic forces within the circle set off on a sinister dark journey down the malicious path, perpetuating an opening that slides deep into various pagan platitudes, mysticism and misanthropy. The macabre act devoted to these two pieces of raw black metal/sinister omens, was revealed in an incandescent act of absolute solemnity towards funerary art, pagan works and the putrescence of evil… both works achieved in a semi-rehearsal type quality that provide an overwhelming musical performance soured with the demonic poison that they recite in each of the death hymns.

OLD FOREST formed in London, England in 1998. Comprised of guitarist/bassist Beleth and vocalist/keyboardist Kobold (with programmed drums credited to “Grond”), the duo set out to make cold, archaic black metal in the tradition of early EMPEROR, DARKTHRONE and other like-minded Norwegian arsonists. Their 1998 demo “Of Mists and Graves” displayed a strong vision of what was to come, with a raw production befitting the gravelike atmosphere of the music. The group would follow up the next year with their first full-length “INTO THE OLD FOREST.”

The third album by the enigmatic Old Tower titled “The Last Eidolon” tells a sombre story of a kingdom laid to waste by its own creator through the corruption of dark magic and possession of destructive spirits. Because of wrongful decisions, spiritual rebellion and the misuse of ancient yet dangerous practices these malevolent forces started to turn against the enchanter. And so fell his once proud and powerful dominion. What was once great has now been reduced to a hollow manifestation of its old self. The long and weary process of reclaiming its former glory has begun…

Throughout the “Grim Alchemy” trilogy, smithed in conspiracy with the mighty Hospital Productions, The Specter meticulously crafted his own style of medieval dark ambient. “The Last Eidolon” is an elongation but also a new direction of this concept and will take the listener on a desolate journey spanning three, long chapters. Faded memories of a dark past will shimmer in and out of existence throughout these epic compositions yet the energy of renewal is flowing from the fountains of the old kingdom.
