Eternal Dark Splendour

by The Night Specter

supported by

Jordan Vauvert Eternal Dark Splendour, premier album de The Night Specter, ouvre une dimension dans laquelle les contradictions n'existent plus : c'est une production caverneuse qui vous attend ici (on croirait que la terre s'ouvre en deux dans "The Blood of Christ") mais tout est clair. Pas de guitares électriques et de rare fois de la guitare acoustique : la batterie accompagne une sorte de drone ambiant, mais il s'agit bien de black metal. Eternal Dark Splendour est profane et sacré : un voile de ténèbres. Favorite track: The Blood of Christ.

Seb A neverending, expanding beam of molted iron projected through the night sky. A vibrating cathedral of sound. When listening to De Jong's symphonic black metal album always come to my mind the words of Arthur C. Clarke : "It's full of stars."

Ravenna The ethereal dreamlike atmosphere juxtaposed against cold, sharp black metal vocals that slice the said atmosphere like a howling wind transports the listener to an another-worldly state, somewhere between a dreamworld and the void. The name of the project tells you exactly what to expect, and it doesn’t disappoint.

Gene Hex ● Evening of Light The Night Specter is only the latest in Maurice De Jong's (Gnaw Their Tongues) ever-expanding roster of projects. Eternal Dark Splendour is glorious, dark, haze-drenched black metal. Almost overwhelming. Just give in.

My dearest Portal album. The guitar tuning is otherworldly, riffing speed meteoric, and overall density greater than a brood of black holes. The Curator has never sounded more ravenous for souls. Beyond Death Metal. Sugammadex
