NIPHREDIL The Final Star CD

The album consists of 6 songs based on foundations of black and doom metal, with embellishments of prog, ambient and goth. Clocking in at 57 minutes, songwriting and structure, paired with interesting riffs/chords and longing melodies were two pillars upon which the atmosphere could develop; raw emotion and inspiration always being the originating source of all these. The lyrics dealt with the topics mentioned above, but ancient spirituality and inner struggles also intervened. This work definitely would not have been what it is if not for the participation of Canadian (and fantastic prog rock/metal musician) session drummer Danial Devost and Alex Guerrero on the bass duties, spreading his always excellent bass lines and tremolo picking.
