█ Austrian atmospheric space ambient blackened metal █
█ band Eismond has finally released its debut █
█ full-length album ôAs We Hide the Moonô. The band █
█ was formed in 2010 by Alex Wieser, who is also █
█ behind many other mostly ambient related projects, █
█ like Uruk-Hai, Hrossharsgrani, Elisabetha, █
█ Bonemachine, Hrefnesholt, Wach, Manwδ and others. █
█ After some demos as a solo project, Jaron joined █
█ the band in guitars and vocals (the project was █
█ mostly instrumental before) and Eismond released █
█ their first album in 2013 via the German label █
█ Kristallblut Records, who also re-released their █
█ first demo remastered with bonus tracks in CD █
█ version, entitled ôBehind the Moon We Are Looking █
█ into the Distanceö. █
█ EismondÆs music was always inspired by the mystery █
█ and beauty of outer space and the secrets hidden █
█ in other worlds, with a preference in our planetÆs █
█ satellite, Moon. Their music is down tempo, with █
█ atmospheric synths, a few distorted background █
█ guitars and various experimental sound samples, █
█ giving you the impression that everything moves █
█ slow, floating in zero gravity. There are 4 very █
█ long compositions, each one over 12 minutes, while █
█ 2 of them are actually over 20 minutes, so the █
█ whole album lasts for 72 minutes. The presence of █
█ lead melodic guitars and solos in some ôselectedö █
█ parts add a very warm touch in the songs. This █
█ time there are a few whispers and some clean male █
█ vocals, enriching even more their sound, but itÆs █
█ true that the album still gives the impression of █
█ an instrumental work. IÆd like to comment the █
█ wonderful melodic vocal parts in the first song █
█ ôThe Wind that Shakes the Grassô, which are really █
█ epic! The closing track ôThe Gilded Mountainö is █
█ their most heavy song so far, with more distorted █
█ guitars and a few screaming vocals. ôAs We Hide █
█ the Moonö moves in the footsteps of the demo █
█ album, but is more solid, interesting and █
█ well-produced. █
█ Fans of ambient space atmospheric music could find █
█ Eismond a very interesting experiment. Their █
█ somehow ôblackenedö atmosphere could also attract █
█ metal audience and of course all those who like █
█ AlexÆs other projects, since there are some common █
█ elements with most of them. ôAs We Hide the Moonö █
█ is released by Kristallblut Records in deluxe █
█ 6-panel digipak with all the lyrics and beautiful █
█ artwork of alien ice-covered rocky landscapes. You █
█ can visit their official profiles for more info █
█ and sound samples. █
