- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
The most scathing HOWLING WIND album to date, and the most scathing, vicious
and primal album that guitarist/vocalist Ryan Lipynsky (he of Unearthly
Trance, Thralldom, The Serpentine Path and one of the most underrated and
prominent musicians in the underground today) has been involved with, ôOf
Babalonö sees THE HOWLING WIND (also comprised of ALDEBARAN drummer/vocalist
Tim ôParasiticö Call as the bandÆs other half) unleash their most searing work
yet. An album in which Lipynsky has even dubbed one of his musical triumphs,
ôOf Babalonö is a genuine black metal vision that hails from the American
wastelands, a vision which paints an ominous picture of the fall and
destruction of mankind. A continuation of the themes and visions explored with
their previous albums, ôPestilence & Perilö and ôInto The Cryosphereö
respectively, ôOf Babalonö is a further exploration and examination of the
religious, occult, and metaphysical. Where ôInto The Cryosphereö was that
mirror where the downfall of mankind was reflected through a kingdom of ice,
ôOf Babalonö is that unholy reflection through a kingdom of blood and fire.
