30th of August the longawaitebed debut of RAXA (the project of famous in Russian underground multiinstrumentalist Lefthander) was issued. The genre is ethno dark doom metal performed in Aztec and the main topics of album is concerns with cult epos Popol Vuh. A quote from press release:
The first chapter of mystical and bloodfilled saga of ancient folk who lived beyond Great Water.
More somber and raw sounds of pagan nature if compare this work to speed and melodic next album “Rabinal achi”.
All lyrics are written in the language of ancient firey Aztecs. This language more harsh and like no other suitable for dark sacrificial songs devoted to Sun for keeping its motion and life on Earth.
The Music filled with atmosphere and primordial tribe-chaos. Ambiental and mid-tempo doom/black and blackened beauty of melodies. With the every next track the listener fall into trance and couldn`t return to ordinary world.
Ten tracks of celebrations and ceremonies Aztlan people.
Ten pieces of live flesh wrapped in pain.
Ten sounds from spirits of Xibalba.
Glory to clan of Heron!
Three times three!!!
The album is available via our site and via our distributors soon.
