The German black metal masters Auro unveil the first glimpse into their upcoming second full-length album, “Im Schatten der Bastion“, to be released on August 15 via Folter Records. Pre-orders are open here: https://bit.ly/4k8Lh1I.
It was masterfully crafted by notorious artist Belial NecroArts and perfectly captures the album’s atmosphere and concept: A transcendental train of thought merged with categoric self-determination, -exaltation and dehumanization as the key enabling factor. The omnipresent ancient, scaled god Ouroboros once again provided guidance, orientation and impetus by his titanic splendor.
