Plague Beasts, the third full-length
Torture session from
Cloak Of Altering, is out now on Crucial Blast.
One of the acts within the plethora of
Twisted projects spearheaded or fully embodied by Dutch noise
Architect, Maurice de Jong, a.k.a. Mories (also of
Gnaw Their Tongues, Seirom,
Aderlating, Mors Sonat,
De Magia Veterum, among others),
Cloak Of Altering channels the artists' deep fascination with the more mutated realms of electronically-damaged symphonic and industrial black
Metal into a brutally fragmented form of mechanized pandemonium. The man's most
Twisted COA concepts yet come snarling forth on his Crucial Blast debut, Plague Beasts;
Seven new movements resulting in a thirty-eight minute blackwarped techno-celestial mindfuck.
The whirlwind of anguish that is Plague Beasts is now streaming in its degrading
Entirety.
With Plague Beasts, Mories/Cloak Of Altering delivers a ferocious affront to black
Metal form and structure, combining his otherworldly strain of sweeping symphonic black
Metal with bursts of
Intense electronic chaos, waves of
Nebulous synthesizer and spastic rhythmic violence, at times resembling some
Twisted Nightmare version of prog rock keyboard freak-outs, or vintage 16-bit game soundtracks being
Fused to the gristle and
Graveyard stink of second wave black metal. More than anything else from Mories, this stuff is closest in spirit to the malevolent necro-industrial and fractured drug-fueled machine-ecstasies of
Aborym,
Blacklodge, Dodheimsgard, Mysticum, and Abigor.
