The enigmatic melodic black metal band Achathras presents its debut full-length offering, “A Darkness Of The Ancient Past”, out now via Cult Never Dies. Created in the shadows by a collective of black metal veterans, Achathras instead offer a much broader embrace of those glory years, resurrecting the values of the early to late 1990s European black metal scene, including aggressive riffs, atmospheric songwriting, caustic vocals and otherworldly synth work . Epic and at times melodic, the band’s memorable songwriting feels utterly fresh yet will resonate with those missing the departed spirit found in the early albums of Gehenna, Odium, Emperor, Hecate Enthroned, Obtained Enslavement, Taake, Old Man’s Child, Ancient, Dimmu Borgir, Abigor, Covenant, Malignant Eternal, Forefather and Mork Gryning.
