Comment:

Ascension is a mysterious/anonymous German band mixed by two members of Odem Arcarum, Apparently Ascension should be composed of members from other established underground acts (as Katharsis). Consolamentum is a concept album following the transformation of a human soul towards salvation. The music contains Orthodoxe influences (Watain) combined with Secrets of the Moon (for the mid tempo passages). Ascension invent nothing and at the same time sounds perfect, not a single false note. Catchy riffs, subtle breaks and melodies, powerful vocals (remind me Funeral Mist) added to a developed and almost refined drum,... This occult atmosphere takes breath away.

Consolamentum  in 3 words: Mysticism, Classic, Elaborate
