Druga płyta AINZAMKAIT za miesiąc

 

On March 21st internationally, Purity Through Fire is proud to present Ainzamkait's highly anticipated second album, Fluch des Nachzehrers, on digipack CD format. The vinyl version follow will follow in the summer.

In late 2024, Ainzamkait delivered their bolt-from-the-blue debut album, Was des Lebens nicht wert. The work of one Grymnir der Zornige, Ainzamkait's moniker is a linguistic twist on the German "Einsamkeit," which is loneliness in English - and fittingly, that's exactly what he delivered, offering a righteous new twist on Teutonic black metal.

Proving that was no fluke, Ainzamkait return under the banner of Purity Through Fire with Fluch des Nachzehrers. Sonically, on first blush, this second album is built upon the same foundation as the debut: riffs that are hypnotically melancholic yet also strangely triumphant, a slow-burning approach to pacing, and Grymnir der Zornige's full-throated rasp elevating everything safely beyond DSBM dross. However, where that first album conveyed a certain hooliganism latent to the best German black metal, here do Ainzamkait soar on cosmic wings high into the night, raised up on synths that are even more ethereal than that no-less-considerable debut; indeed, one need only translate this album's title as well as ponder the cover art to perceive their nocturnal trajectory. Strangely enough, the eight tracks comprising Fluch des Nachzehrers are more compact this time around but somehow sound even more expansive: the destination might be the same, but the route to get there has been altered slightly - and compellingly, vampirically so. With new drummer Geyst des Wüterichs likewise providing livelier color, Ainzamkait continue their noble march...the curse awakens!

In the meantime, hear the brand-new title track "Flurch des Nachzehrers" HERE at Purity Through Fire's official YouTube channel. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
