Nocturnal March uses solely the banderole, while “Hora Nocturna” pictures the old logo cross only. The t-shirts of “Nocturnal March” as well as “Hora Nocturna” have just part of the logo. Those familiar with our releases do know that we’ve used two different versions of the logo in the past.

You can work out details and then just add final touches with the “real” musicians.Īctually, where did you lost your classic logo? That’s one of the benefits of modern times. Today there are ways to write down whole arrangements for the entire band. Several years back there was just a couple of riffs for one guitar which were straightened out for the entire band in the rehearsal room. Although we’re of course taking advantage of nowadays possibilities to record stuff prior to entering the studio. Has the approach to writing and recording music change from previous albums?īasically no. Perhaps that is the reason why it sounds more “controlled”. Due to the nature of the album it had to be much darker, atmospheric and obscure. An album that sounds alive and sincere must be honest. Honesty is definitely something you can easily recognize on an album. Obstructing thoughts are for example “is this what people would expect from us”. Any thought that might obstruct creativity needs to be put aside. This means that new ideas are composed without anything specific in mind. We’re writing new material as it comes along. Without going much into detail, especially the guitar sound went back to the roots. Indeed we’ve made minor adjustments concerning the sound. This is not so much an emotional rage as a tool of knowledge. I mean, it’s full of some confident, “controlled” wrath. The music became more measured and more detailed. To some such topics might be “stories” to us it is “reality”.Ĭompared to its predecessors the new album sounds more cold and frostily. Either as an emotion, vision, perception or philosophy … but everything is revolving about the aforementioned cosmological thought. In their own unique way each and every one is reflecting a part of the so called Necrocosmos. All of them are part of the entire picture, but each track can stand for its own. “Necrovision” is a concept album, however, the meaning and purpose would not change a bit if the songs were arranged in a different order. So far we’ve always worked on new material in no particular order. Or all of the songs - it's just a different stories? What is the concept of “Necrovision”? Is there some basic idea, which brings together the album in one or a linear story starting with the first song and ending with the last one.

We are definitely very, very proud of this release.

Anyone enjoying traditional Scandinavian Black Metal will most likely find the same atmosphere and spirit on “Necrovision”. Slaughtercult the audible part offers much more variety – as far as that is possible within the boundaries of old school black metal. While the new material is still easily recognizable as D. Both the musical as well as the lyrical content has been extended further into the occult. Slaughtercult in every possible direction. The sixth chapter entitled “Necrovision” broadens the horizon of D. How would you describe this album for those who have not heard it?

Well, recently the band released new album called "Necrovision". However, on a couple of personal questions Velnias had answered individually… I must admit, Velnias is an excellent conversationalist, who always has something to say.
