Eidulon

about

Eidulon (or Eidvlon if you wish) is a brand new Italian dark ambient project, which joined the "damned legions" of the Malignant Records. Its ritualistic soundscapes with an industrial taste, makes it very specific. It's like Eidulon says: "Eidulon was the term used by the Greeks to define an image that consists only in a surface without depth. A spectral resemblance, a fictitious imago, an emanation of a divinity. A divinity that deceives humans, introducing itself like a thin film inside them and gutting them. Simulacra. During our Age Idolatry has reached its peak and the cult has preserved only a fetishistic value. Worships and Readymades compose the soundscape of postmodern era, whereby it can be documented and sold. Humans are still at the centre of analysis. A shade of what does not exist." [it comes from the Eidulon's homepage] And what about the debut CD "Idolatriae"? Here we are... "7 tracks of ultra bleak, abstract atmospheres, with sounds and textures that seem to seep from catacomb walls and come slithering out of subterranean chambers. Certainly, this can be classified as a dark ambient record, but at it's core, it's more than just that simple classification. There's a gritty, more jagged edge here, with tetonic shifts, deep rumblings, and crackling, climatic squalls buried under a bed of ghostly reverb and haunting tonal resonance. Fits in nicely with past Malignant releases such as R|A|A|N's 'The Nacrasti', Heid's 'Arktogaa', and even Caul's 'Crucible'
