Eschatology of War

by 1914

supported by

Axeman My heart is with you through this tough time

SwordedGun Dark, heavy and brutal. The perfect type of music to explore the brutal reality of trench warfare. Masterpiece of an album. Favorite track: Verdun.

Peter Rabbit This album is the soundtrack for the dread of passing day after day sitting in a waterlogged trench somewhere in northern France, fearing the moment your sergeant calls you and your comrades to do a nightime raid against the german machine gun nest a couple kilometres down No Man's Land. Favorite track: Ottoman Rise.

about

!!!NOTE ABOUT DIGITAL DOWNLOAD!!!

As you probably know, band signed a contract with major label, and we were forced close digital sales of the album. To save streaming via bandcamp we listed price 1000 USD, so it's not a typo. But you still will get digital version of the album as a free bonus after CD/LP purchase.

Fantastic debut album of Blackened Death/Doom/Sludge warmachine from Lviv, Ukraine dedicated to WWI and coming with fresh and powerful sound in veins of HAIL OF BULLETS, ASPHYX and BOLT THROWER with strong martial atmosphere. The album covers the whole theatre of fighting the Great War - the Battle of Gallipoli and the involvement of Ataturk, Brusilovsky breakthrough, the Battle of Verdun, gas attack at Ypres, Italian troops Arditi, Christmas truce and the bombing of London by German Zeppelins. WWI does not explored very often in metal, but these Ukrainian brave soldiers make a damn solid case for it. It's stomping, it is heavy as all hell, and just makes you want to get up and march toward death.

Menschenmühle
by Kanonenfieber

supported by 115 fans who also own “Eschatology of War”

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder edoerfler

Панихида
by Krzysztof Drabikowski

supported by 66 fans who also own “Eschatology of War”

La traversée du désert n'aura pas duré quarante jours mais quatre longues années... Avec Панихида, Батюшка renaît enfin de ses cendres et, bien que désormais seul (ou plus exactement entouré de deux chanteurs), Христофор accomplit un miracle. Il s'inscrit dans la continuité de Литоургиiа avec un black metal orthodoxe qui nous convie ici à une cérémonie dédiée aux morts. Sa vision est englobante : les mélodies, la gravité et le silence font toucher le paradis ; l'agressivité est luciférienne. Jordan Vauvert

Unsettling Whispers
by GAEREA

supported by 62 fans who also own “Eschatology of War”

Gaerea's first release of "Unsettling Whispers" was in 2018, and since, they dared define a "black metal" niche of their own, they dared to walk a new path and stir shit up a bit in the realm of BM, this album is a masterpiece and a milestone proving that it can be done, provided the band can pull it off, and they did, oh they did! Gloomy, dark, post-BM sludgy whatever, it's Gaerea, and this one belongs in my BC collection, the end. sachavonkarl74
