about

“Covenant” takes the form of a deep instrumental narrative, and takes influence from the likes of Tool, Nine Inch Nails and Ben Howard, as well as film composers such as Hans Zimmer, Howard Shore, Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross.
Work began on “Covenant” in August of 2019 as a palette cleanser during periods of writer’s block on heavier projects. Using cleaner guitar sounds and ambient synths, the base sound for the EP was quickly established and the material came soon afterwards. Four original songs were composed, and one Nine Inch Nails cover was arranged within several weeks.
It was at this time that producer/composer David Redmond was asked to be involved with the project to help with the final arrangements and production of the songs. Dave’s input and contribution resulted in the material reaching entirely new levels of depth, nuance and complexity.
Together, Rotlaust and Redmond worked to produce a highly detailed and cohesive piece of work that explores a wealth of moods. Using musical motifs that span the entire release, they strived to recreate the function of a film soundtrack, effectively portraying a narrative through instrumental, progressive music.

Beneath The Crimson Eclipse
by Imperial Demonic

supported by 4 fans who also own “Covenant”

Absolutely classic-to-the-core, straight to the point in the vein of early 2000's Dark Funeral and Naglfar, with some Cruelty era CoF thrown in. Nostalgic as all fuck, and I love it. xaphanapraxia

The Death of Gaia
by OFFICIUM TRISTE

supported by 4 fans who also own “Covenant”

An absolutely amazing album that reaches you to the bottom of the abyss. Gaia takes you by the hand, tells you that you're not alone in this, the pain is over, the misunderstanding of your pain is over and accompanied by keyboards, violins, acoustic guitars, cello and amazing vocals, she pulls you out of the disgusting mire of your mind and together you embark on a journey of melancholy, despondency, hope, pessimism and the seasons. tenebriscaedes
