More Info

ATRIUM CARCERI gehört sicher inzwischen zu den besten der COLD MEAT-Acts, seine Kompositionen weisen eine kompositorische Schärfe auf, die einen leicht in den Bann zieht. Sein viertes Album heisst PTAHIL: Sehr elektronisch, fast orchestral breitwandig, oft mit langsamem halligen Pulses versehen, von cinematoskopischen Charakter; und immer wieder tauchen unheimliche, rumpelnde, elektronisch sirrende oder organische Geräuscheffekte auf, wie in einer von fremden Wesen bevölkerten Unterwelt. Trotzdem sind die Stücke perfekt durchstruktiert, jeder Sound wirkt gewollt platziert, stilistisch irgendwo im Kreuzungsbereich von post-Industrial, dark ambient & Neo-Klassik. Erstklassig!


"The fourth album from composer Simon Heath (Sweden) ventures beyond the vestiges of your mortality, granting a fleeting glance at the world beyond the veil. As ever, Simon has reinvented the genre as well as himself with a unique ambience created from his ever-increasingly complex and obscure techniques of mental dissolution and musical innovation. Atrium Carceri emerges from the vapours with yet another stunning release entitled Ptahil (fetahil). The obsidian citadel stands stoic, its forceful gaze forever over streets running rampant with the councils bidders, while the citadel of glass attracts the mindless reincarnates grasping at anything physical while their memories slowly burn away in the womb of their eternal home. The comforts of quiet lives forever washed away by a miasmic tidal wave of necrotic flesh, sagging, protean forms and the chill of the grave.This is a place where steel rusts and is forgotten, where flesh and the fleeting forms it inhabits are forever changed. Ptahil sees all, and forgets naught. Let your mind be stripped to the pulpy, undulating core with this darkened voyage into domains both dreadful and serenely beautiful." [press release]
