Demonstrating a more refined sound and expanding on stylistic efforts explored in previous releases Secular Hymns is yet another triptych on the dark journey of the project.
From Sideline Magazine:
Moving somewhere in between dark-ambient and industrial-noise “Secular Hymns” is an opus that catches the attention for its impressive arsenal of sounds and noises that have been used. But the main characteristic of the release concerns the global …
