Contradictory Light




It is a sunny day today, yet I found a fitting "music" backdrop in Aghast's Hexerei Im Zwielicht Der Finsternis. It seemed strange at first but as I continued listening, the whole thing started to make sence to me. A sunny day during the winter offers a contrast by itself. The utterly dark, haunting and ritualistic chanting of Aghast just completes the picture.

After all the light of the sun is as blinding as Der Finsternis.
