Endless Dismal Moan Reissuing Album
Hessian Firm is proud to announce the forthcoming CD reissue of "Lord of Nightmare" from Japanese black metal enigma, Endless Dismal Moan. Originally released in 2006, this masterwork of torment by sole member Chaos 9, who passed away in 2008, will be will be reissued by the label as a limited edition CD with 4-page booklet on July 25.
"Endless Dismal Moan is the brainchild of Japanese musician Chaos 9 (R.I.P). Embracing the digital production and aesthetics of his era as well as incorporating the suffocating sensation of Japanese horror. Endless Dismal Moan provides a completely twisted take on the very idea of raw black metal that remains unsurpassed to this very day. We have been given permission by a live band member and close associate of Chaos 9 (R.I.P) to reissue this full length album.
"Lord of Nightmare" is not only aesthetically accomplished, but also innovative and significant within the history of underground music. With "Lord of Nightmare," sole member Chaos 9 abandons the melancholic romanticism of early black metal in order to create a masterpiece of contemporary urban horror.
The music on this album immerses the listener in a chaotic vortex of visceral despair, evoking the nightmarish visions often found in the Japanese cyberpunk movement. Lord of Nightmare stands as Chaos 9's greatest accomplishment, a culmination of his artistic vision and a terrifying statement within a genre that was slowly repeating itself. It is an essential release for anyone interested in the later developments of black metal, or in truly extreme metal in general. More...
