Drudkh - Anti-Urban (2007)

This little EP by Ukrainian black metal cult leaders Drudkh consists of two tracks. The first being Fallen Into Oblivion, a slow-paced instrumental. The second, which highlights this release for me is riff-laden Ashes. It's more upbeat compared to the former. Atmospheric, simple, sorrowful and raw.

People think that talking is a sign of thinking. It isn't, for the most part' on the contrary, it's a mechanical dodge of the body to relieve oneself of the strain of thinking, just as exercising the muscles helps the body to become temporarily unconscious of its weight, its pain, its weariness, and the foreknowledge of its doom.
