With this third full-length, FERALIA delve deeper into
their singular vision of Black Metal, forging a work
that resists easy categorization. "Ultima Requies" is
neither rooted in old school orthodoxy nor aligned with
the polished tendencies of contemporary production.
Instead, it stands as a raw and evocative offering,
where abrasive textures and ritualistic atmospheres
converge into something austere, immersive and
profoundly spiritual.
The sound remains anchored in a sense of the sacred,
drawing from arcane and occult dimensions tied to the
archaic Roman world. Each composition unfolds as a
passage, evoking forgotten rites, liminal states and the
tension between life and death, presence and absence.
The artwork of "Ultima Requies" reflects this vision,
depicting a reinterpretation of the necromantic ritual
of Erichto, the Thessalian witch described in "De Bello
Civili" by Lucan. A figure feared even by the gods,
Erichto was said to raise fallen soldiers from the
battlefield during one of the most turbulent phases of
Roman civil war. This imagery embodies the album's core:
a confrontation with death not as an end, but as a
threshold to forbidden knowledge.
Following the path opened by "Helios Manifesto" and
"Under Stige / Over Dianam", FERALIA further refine
their language, balancing raw intensity with a deeply
contemplative undercurrent. The result is an album that
feels both immediate and timeless, grounded in the
physicality of Black Metal yet reaching toward something
intangible and eternal.
