Carpe Noctem - In Terra Profugus

Review by Debra Jung

Carpe Noctem's album, In Terra Profugus, is a haunting and atmospheric journey through the depths of black metal. The band's use of dissonant chords and frenzied blast beats create a sense of unease and chaos, while the melodic guitar lines add a sense of beauty and depth to the music.

The vocals are raw and intense, with the singer's tortured screams perfectly capturing the album's themes of despair and isolation. The lyrics are in Icelandic, adding to the album's otherworldly feel and creating a sense of mystery and darkness.

The album is well-produced, with a clear and powerful sound that allows each instrument to shine through. The use of atmospheric effects and ambient sounds adds to the overall atmosphere of the album, creating a sense of dread and unease that permeates every track.

Summary by Debra Jung

In Terra Profugus is a stunning example of black metal done right. Carpe Noctem has crafted an album that is both brutal and beautiful, a testament to the power of music to transport and transform. Fans of the genre should not miss this incredible release.
