Sounds | The Answer Lies In The Black Void - Virgin Fire
Het is dan toch een pak killer geworden, de nachten zijn donkerder, de wind ruist door de bomen, het leven vetraagt ... tijd voor een heerlijke noot doom dus. Wel van het sfeervolle soort waarbij soundscapes en zwevende vocale partijen centraal staan. Geniet van dit muzikale en cinematografische hoogstandje.
Thou Shalt is verschenen op 13 oktober via Burning World Records.

The band comments: "The Virgin Fire was created using the GEN-2 AI software, modelling the dream-like surreal and occult images that visualise The Answer Lies In The Black Void’s universe. Our second album Thou Shalt is inspired by the concept of Carl Jung’s shadow and "Virgin Fire" deals with the concept of the dream state according to these works of Jung : “The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul”.
The Answer Lies In The Black Void is a collaboration between Martina Horváth from avant-garde metal project Thy Catafalque and Jason Köhnen from Celestial Season, The Lovecraft Sextet, Bong-Ra, ex-The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble, the duo also work together in the transcendental music project Mansur that releases on Denovali Records.
Horváth and Köhnen joined forces through their passion for all things doom, presenting their personal take on the genre with all its beautiful darkness and from all possible angles. Bringing their own mix of atmospheric laden avant-doom.
After their immensely well received debut album ‘Forlorn’, The Answer Lies In The Black Void now returns with their second album titled ‘Thou Shalt’. Inspired by Carl Jung’s ‘shadow work’ this new album is scheduled for release on October 13th via Burning World Records and will followed by the bands first ever live performances with a full line-up in a small tour throughout The Netherlands and Germany. The Answer Lies In The Black Void will be performing live as a 5 piece, with Botond Fogl (guitar), Attila Kovacs (guitar) and MarkPotkovacz (drums) being part of the full line-up.
