Das Imperium der Reinheit

by Besteigung

supported by

Le Panda Du Mal A wonderful nocturnal glow, a light amid decay that promises immortality, the dim splendor of ruined abbeys and snowy tombs: ‘The Empire of Purity’ deepens this aura from Besteigung’s Novalis-haunted debut. The music effuses that strange pantheistic, Christian romanticism of the German school, with its union of morbidity and immortality, sorrow and joy, attached to nature in all its savagery while reaching toward a faint harmony. Besteigung is great, unique, and unjustly overlooked.

about

Gedanken über Reinheit und höhere Wahrheiten in den Tagen der Streitereien und Lügen

...das Volk, das in Finsternis saß, hat ein großes Licht gesehen; und die da saßen am Ort und Schatten des Todes, denen ist ein Licht aufgegangen...
(Mt 4:16)
