Album is a tribute to Quebec’s damned poet Émile Nelligan.
The band name is Latin for "to commit suicide".
" The description for this band claims that they’re a black/doom metal hybrid, but the doom aspects cannot be felt as much as the black aspects, which was unexpected. In actual fact, there is little doom to be had, so prepare yourself for an almost entirely black metal driven record. This fact culminates in songs like ‘Sérénade Triste’, which coats the general atmosphere with a very Burzum like sound, especially in relation to the heavy distortion on guitar and the neat ambient work supplied by the programming, which aligns the Burzum guitar style and mixes it well with the ambiance like paints, with the guitars as one colour, the ambient sections another and when mixed together, we have an entirely new, refreshing colour. This is everything I expected and more. Ambiance, Burzum inspired at points, creative, never too repetitious, dynamic and even has time to punctuate the beauty with the ever impressive vocals of Monarque."
Altar Of Plagues - When the Sun Drowns in the Ocean
13:44 Jul 06 2011 Times Read: 850
Unless you are into the black metal or post-rock scenes, there's a good chance you may not have yet heard of this band from the rainy Irish isle. In 2009, a trio called Altar of Plagues released their debut album 'White Tomb', which has since gone on to become something of an underground classic for its startling atmosphere, textures and epic take on the black metal style. As can even be heard from each EP, Altar of Plagues continues to take their ambitious style of metal onward, constantly modifying, refining, and emphasizing aspects of their sound. As one would might have been led to believe anyway, Altar of Plague's eagerly awaited sophomore record 'Mammal' takes the band another step in the right direction, finally pushing them to becoming one of the greatest acts the contemporary black or post- metal realms have to offer. While there is bound to be heated debate concerning whether or not this second album is any 'better' than the first, Altar of Plagues does give the impression that they seek to topple everything they have done in the past with 'Mammal', and while this might be argued by some, the band has found their first masterpiece with this one.
