The debut album, The Great Mist Within, of Αuriferous Flame, the new project of Ayloss from Spectral Lore and Mystras, was released on 26 August via True Cult Records.
According to its mastermind, Αuriferous Flame is a vessel for some ideas explored with Mystras. "Αuriferous Flame is in a way a continuation of many of the ideas and music styles in Mystras, without the obligation of the medieval historical theme and folk music pieces. The main goal of a project is a return to old-school extreme metal aesthetics for inspiration, in particular of the darkest and most hostile kind of metal, rejuvenation and a re-synthesis of styles no longer quite as prevalent, without falling into the same old trappings of the past, whether this is ideological bigotry or metal elitism."
Greatly inspired by the atmospheric and frosty black metal from the 90s and early '00s, The Great Mist Within is a truly masterful album, perfectly balancing an equally epic and ominous atmosphere with venomous and ripping riffs, powerful blast beats and devilish screams. Link
