THY CATAFALQUE - Meta (CD)

THY CATAFALQUE - Meta (CD)
 

CD reissue with bonus track "Tavaszi ének" in jewel case with 16-page booklet.

With 'Meta', Hungarian composer, lyricist, and multi-instrumentalist Tamás Kátai has taken a slightly more direct approach to his new songs than on sixth album 'Sgúrr' (2015). Harsh metal outbreak organically entwine with ethereal passages of stunning beauty, folkloric melodies contrast with progressive interludes. Nothing is ever predictable, yet after several spins and putting the pieces mentally together a coherent picture emerges.
THY CATAFALQUE pose a challenge off any beaten genre track and definitely demand focused listening, but the harvest of such pleasant labour is a rich bounty of amazing soundscapes well worth any effort.

For fans of SOLEFALD, ARCTURUS, BLUT AUS NORD, ULVER.
