Purity Through Fire is proud to present Coraxul's striking debut
album, Vihavirsiä Aamunkoin, on CD, A5
digipack, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats. The CD and tape versions shall
be released on December 12th while the vinyl will follow in summer 2022.
Coraxul hail from the
ever-fertile Finnish black metal underground. Although brand-new in name, the
quartet's members hail from the well-regarded likes of Sacrificium Carmen,
Licht des Urteils, Curse Upon a Prayer, and labelmates Riivaus. Staunchly traditional,
expect no grand deviations from the timeless Finnish black metal archetype on
the band's debut full-length, Vihavirsiä Aamunkoin -
but within that staunch traditionalism lies a bounty of mysticism and
melody. Coraxul thus combines
Satan worship, nature glorification, and traditional Finnish folklore in the
vein of Finnish national poet Eino Leino, and that melancholic mélange bears
bitter fruit across the album's taut-yet-expansive 40-minute runtime. It's
warmly familiar but freezingly cold as quintessential Finnish black metal gets,
fondly recalling the late/great likes of Noenum, Vitsaus, and Prevalent Resistance
rather than the usual suspects. But with the blanching passion and palpable
physicality on display across Vihavirsiä Aamunkoin,
Coraxul are indeed their
own masters. Besides, black metal doesn't need to "be" anything more
than it already is.
Coraxul raise the banners
for Finland's forgotten past. Hail the new dawn with Vihavirsiä Aamunkoin!
