Note: these are the original CD edition of LYRINX's first major title. This 2007 CD edition has imperfect (marked but play fine) discs, which is part of the reason another CD reissue was put out by another label a year later.
Brand new demo from UK black metal group LYRINX!! Studio recorded and mixed, April 2007.
Nihilistic Purity is a sombre, melancholic blend of black metal and doom. Mournfully melodic lead guitar, a strong bass, powerful drums and tortured, distressing vocals! A sound which naturally has similarities to the best-era of Germany's BETHLEHEM!!
The band also lists influence from bands such as DRUDKH, NACHTMYSTIUM, HYPOTHERMIA, MAKE A CHANGE, ELYSIAN BLAZE, MORTIFERA, ALCEST, WODENSTHRONE, XASTHUR, DOR, ANATHEMA.
This is the first demo of a series exploring nihilism, and here particularly the psychological impact of this anti-philosophy on the human mind. A theme perfectly befitting the label 'Todestrieb'!
