SVARTSYN Vortex of the Destroyer TAPE [MC]

Limited to 100 copies. Comes with a 4 panel J-card

With its tenth full-length album, Svartsyn delivers a work rooted in both its present vision and primordial past. “Vortex of the Destroyer” unfolds in two intertwined chapters: four new compositions alongside six resurrected relics from Chalice, the entity that would become Svartsyn in 1994.
The first half of “Vortex of the Destroyer” embodies a refined yet relentless approach, shaped by instinct and hindsight alike. From the ruin of Atlantis to the flames of Surtr and Fenrir, these songs channel Svartsyn’s pursuit of apocalyptic grandeur – a descent into the abyss.
The latter half harks back to the autumn of 1992, breathing new life into six compositions first forged under the Chalice banner. Conceived at the dawn of the second wave of Black Metal, these tracks honour the band’s origins. Re-recorded with present clarity, their essence remains untouched: wild, sinister, and unmistakably Ornias.

By uniting its earliest fire with its latest incarnation, Svartsyn asserts an unbroken path of black devotion. “Vortex of the Destroyer” is both a return and an advance, where destruction and renewal converge.

With both CD & LP coming out by the hands of Norma Evangelium Diaboli, Nomad Snakepit Productions was given the honour of casting this new masterpiece on cassette tape, in a limited edition of 100 copies!
