Патриархь - Пророк Илия / Prorok Ilja

Atmospheric Black Metal from Białystok, Poland

Embrace the essence of musical ecstasy, fascination, passion, and the urge to create… the substitute of modernity and classical perfection, a road to freedom… It’s a distinct world of sounds lavishing us with all their divine glory, sounds of liberation, sounds of spiritual spheres, sounds of harmony… Pronounced „Batjushka”, the band’s Cyrillic name Батюшка means „father” and is used to address an Eastern Orthodox priest. Despite their themes and imagery, they are not a Christian band. Although the musical coherence remains understandable, Patriarkh moves away from its roots and offers a rather different sound on Prorok Ilja. Black Metal and orthodox themes are still present, but the folk and airy elements give the album a very different flavor."
