Malist
As I Become Darkness
Powerful riffs, melodic layering, diverse vocals and atmospheric elements are trademarks of Malist's sound since day one, and while the music has developed a lot since the debut, these same elements are very much apparent on th 4th album, too. And yet it is another leap forward, propelling Malist into harsher, more unforgiving territories, befitting the darkness that is expressed by the lyrics. 'As I Become Darkness' spits on the filthy godhood-aspiring rulers of men who encroach on human flesh, manipulate the weak and stigmatize whole nations. It is an exploration of war, existence and death. A personal, grim journey drenched in misanthropy, this album presents a darker side of Malist than ever heard before. The CD comes as collector's edition in 4-panel digipack with booklet (500 copies).
