It has been too long since the dire sounds that haunt PREDATORY LIGHT have manifested themselves in a musical format. Now, after more than six years of mystical gathering and earthly preparation, the second album from this leading-edge American black/doom band is finally released to greet the world’s unquiet ears.
Brimming with tracks spooled out in a consistently dark, apocalyptic style, "Death and the Twilight Hours" is a suffocating, acerbic collection that rewards patient listening and repeats endlessly across darkened rooms.
The band takes full advantage of the atmosphere here, pointing their instruments toward the sky and whispering their dark incantations over ethereal horns, organ drones, unsettling guitar lines, and grinding bass lines. Throughout the album, PREDATORY LIGHT manages to create a feeling of unease while at times sounding almost soothing.
Death and the Twilight Hours, the second full-length album by the GRIM FORCE collaboration PREDATORY LIGHT, draws its swampy influences from the darkest realms of South America and Spain, and it's a mountainous slab of malevolent, nightmarish black metal that can stand proud in the hallowed halls of the most heartfelt and pure black metal. Their sophomore effort offers four towering mazes of infernal technicality to explore within, ancient evil in its true sense, and eerie church nightmare black metal... all wrapped up into a concept album about the triumph of death during times of plague.
Below you have the fourth and the last track of the album, "To Plead Like Angels" a hymn dedicated to death - sole and absolute master over all the world, who holds in her hands the power of life and death, victory and defeat for each man, woman, and child.
Death And The Twilight Hours was produced and mixed by Andrew Oswald, mastered by Dan Lowndes, and finished with cover art by Aron John Dubois and layout by Dan Fried.
