In Shadows And Dust – Enlightened By Darkness (Digipak CD)

“Steeped in HM2 death metal worship, Enlightened by Darkness is In Shadows and Dust’s fourth album in as many years. Melding HM2-driven death with cold black metal, it’s not uncommon for Thirion to sharply transition from soaring blackness to bass heavy, grooving death metal at the drop of a hat. There’s also a healthy dose of D-beat injected into the songs, meaning that In Shadows and Dust isn’t a project that retreads ground that’s been explored countless times. ”
– Decibel Magazine

“…the massive HM-2 tone (the saw is the law!) provides a monstrous undercurrent to a track that’s propelled by furious battering and thundering drumwork and suffused with waves of vicious, roiling riffs. No less vicious are the vocals, which are unhinged and mind-scarring in the quality of their shrieking proclamations. The turbocharged energy of the song is irresistible, but surges even higher into the red zone through the appearance of high, scintillating leads, rippling in an intense and effervescent boil.”
– NO CLEAN SINGING 

Born from the ashes of Pelvic Bones (1997) and The Evil One (1998), In Shadows and Dust is a one man HM-2 obsessed Death / Black powerhouse from France. The band released their first EP in March of 2015 entitled “Fateless”. The the first full length album, “Soul Crusher”, would come soon after on December 21st, of the same year. Ever since that time, each year, the 21st of December marks a new album for the band:
December 21st, 2016 : “Messe Noire”
December 21st, 2017 : “A Fleur de Peau”
….and now December 21st, 2018, we introduce you to “Enlightened by Darkness”!“Enlightened by Darkness” contains 9 tracks of HM-2 infused “old school” sound without compromise. Combining the best elements of Death Metal, Black Metal, and D-beat, In Shadows and Dust paint a violent picture with their penchant for sheer intensity. On December 21st, Redefining Darkness is proud to unleash In Shadow and Dust’s Darkness to the world!!!
