‘Numen’ is ALKALOID’s third album and it’s got some of the band’s most intricate, thought-provoking and batshit insane ideas yet. Not only is it a double album; it's a double album that springs to life with sentient interstellar fungi and other Lovecraftian nastiness.
ALKALOID are still bonded together by their love of extreme metal. After all, this is a supergroup assembled from foundational members of OBSCURA, DARK FORTRESS , TRIPTYKON and other genre heavyweights . The fiery, finger-tapped solo that squiggles loose about halfway through “Clusterfuck” is crushed like an ant between colliding moons.
But ‘Numen’ finds the Bavarian band playing around with all kinds of genre experiments. “The Cambrian Explosion” flips death metal on its horned head with seductive flurries of jazz and flamenco.
ALKALOID are metal’s mad scientists. With ‘Numen’, they’ve concocted another wildly explosive batch of extreme progressive death metal.
For fans of BEYOND CREATION, OBSCURA, NECROPHAGIST, CYNIC.
