Dave Aftandilian Fascinating, deeply immersive blackened doom reimagining and reenactment of the bestial rites from the dawn of proto-Indo-European civilization. I feel the hypnotic beat of the frame drum resounding in the deep cave, walls lit by flickering spirit-flames. Guttural invocations beseech the eldest gods for favor as we anoint ourselves with the gore of the Bos. Let us become Other; let us transcend; let us be divine.

about

ARKHAAIK is the excavation of rites long forgotten, of primitive worship and ancient deities that ruled long before man dominated and soiled the earth. These sounds explore Europe's bronze age and encompass the very essence of said rites that were extinct long ago, told in the Indo-European tongue that was used at the time and is now long lost to the ages, its utterance strange to the modern ear.

"Now, witness the unearthed ancients, beholden to the almighty sky father, ruler of the daylit skies! Behold the mighty bull! In his veins, the blood of the ancients pounds with fervor, and reciprocating this fervor, we bathe in his gore. Through the spilling of his blood, we attain ancient divinity."

Released through Iron Bonehead Productions.
