In an epoch where shadows linger and darkness reigns supreme, Australian black metal luminaries Sorathian Dawn emerge from the abyss, prepared to conquer the realms of sound and myth with their cataclysmic opus, Radiant Terror. Released in 2023, it garnered a feverish reception throughout the black metal world, yet its commitment to the physical form remained shrouded beneath the shock of its sonic onslaught. With the recent cassette release on Into The Dark Soil, Radiant Terror is now set for release on 12" gatefold colour vinyl through the esteemed Brilliant Emperor Records.
This masterpiece is poised to yet again shatter the silence of the mundane with its consecration to the ultimate physical format. Radiant Terror stands as a testament to Sorathian Dawn's relentless evolution, eschewing the barbarous ferociousness of yore for a more melodic, lead guitar-driven tapestry that entwines itself with haunting atmospheric synths. Yet fear not, for the ferocious intensity that has defined their previous works remains resolute, ensuring a savage yet transcendent listening experience. This monumental album plunges into the depths of the mythical and the uncanny, weaving intricate tales of the Wild Hunt and Kalki, the harbinger of destruction. Sorathian Dawn's sonic alchemy melds eastern and western mythologies with darkly occult practices, crafting a rich narrative that is both sinister and spellbinding. Each track serves as a portal into realms unknown, illuminating the duality of creation and annihilation that lurks within the heart of existence. Join the legion of the damned as Sorathian Dawn re-ignites the celestial fires of Radiant Terror via the vinyl forges of Brilliant Emperor Records. Prepare to be consumed by the abyss when this potent offering emerges yet again from the shadows on.. - Brilliant Emperor Records
