xaphanapraxia Mostly guitar-driven with tight drumming and dual vocals, tends to muscle it’s way in with straightforward blasting, then show off with some damn sweet synth and / or guitar work before jumping back into the pit; kind of a combination of cosmic black metal and blackthrash, while incorporating some elements of symphony and Mexican flavor.

YomaBarr What a nice album ;) Simply, nice. Perhaps black metal wasn't invented to make people happy but this album has made me just so.
The amount of ideas this band gets would be enough for three albums, yet they avoid the kitchen sink effect while staying true to the roots - it all just flows, and all elements are in place. And I love me piano in my black metal. Thanks, Black Void Cult, for making my day :)

Fallenin77 🇲🇽 Mexican Melodic Atmospheric Black Metal... Es impresionante el nivel técnico y la riqueza instrumental de este trabajo... ¡La belleza lírica toca profundamente el alma! "To Extinction" y "...Even The Stars Have To Die", son verdaderas obras maestras! Uno de los mejores lanzamientos de 2023. ⛧ Favorite track: To Extinction.

Josh Nichols Frosty and ripping new BVC. Don’t be fooled by the genre tags. The new Black Void Cult is 5% symphonic and 95% tearing you a new one. I like this ratio.
Favorite track: What Lies Ahead.

100 Seconds 04:50
100 SECONDS Our time is running out, ticking clock Cosmic seconds, centuries… minds unlocked Entities consumed by power; freedom lost Endless hunger will devour our trust The doomsday clock is getting nearly within sight of midnight Hundred seconds from the end, and this time there’s no rewrite Coldest war, enemy within, trenches soaked with misery Human race, what’s lost is lost, and there’s no chance for victory Intoxicating, the night’s awaiting It’s suffocating, and the blood begins to flow Infuriating, my heart is racing It’s so frustrating, as my life begins to go

TO EXTINCTION We're stuck in a race that no one will win Lost and out of pace, hope is growing thin Particles ablaze, exposing our lies Mankind just betrays, close to its demise Mass annihilation We cease to exist I refuse the transformation Degradation, domination Constant confrontation Galaxies collide I cannot see the constellation Confirmation, hesitation Total desperation There is no way out, no We won't solve that big equation Devastation, isolation Anguish lives within our souls Inherent to our condition We are programmed to destroy That's why we are headed to extinction Laws of the cosmos we cannot evade Everything is born, and everything fades As Above, So Below, don't try to escape Time has come, close your eyes, and accept your fate You’ve been running away too long Just accept that you don’t belong

AS WE FACE OUR TRUE FEARS The gateway is open, face your fears Terror unspoken, drawing near Nightmares closing in, getting real Darkness lies within, down you kneel This is not a drill, this is not a test Your blood you will spill, rottenness will infest Every time you see that your body won't succeed It's another way of knowing how your end is getting rigged It's recomforting that you're not alone in this All humanity is running to the cliff Everything you wanted to do OVERRULED! All things you needed to feel OVERRULED! Dreams that you could have achieved OVERRULED! You've failed to overcome your fears (X2) We are here to make you feel the pain We are here to throw your soul away We are here to help you die in vain We are here to make you live your life in chains This is not a drill, this is not a test Your blood you will spill, rottenness will infest The gateway is open, face your fears Darkness closing in, down you kneel

WHAT LIES AHEAD Drowning in this ocean of uncertainty In this life, I seem the absentee After all this time I’ve still not found the key Eat the fruit of the forbidden tree What lies ahead is death What lies ahead is chaos, sorrow, and misery What lies ahead is death What lies ahead is pain, madness, and agony Time is so relentlessly passing by I can feel it slip right off my hands Where have all my memories gone? This is goodbye Darker days to come, turmoil expands I see no purpose I find no solace Never-ending rain I see no purpose I find no solace Never-ending rain What lies ahead is death What lies ahead is chaos, sorrow, and misery What lies ahead is death What lies ahead is pain, madness, and agony

AT THE END OF ALL PATHS Melting wings of Icarus We fly close to the sun Rider of belligerence We burn and come undone Dormant in the deepest pit Resides our genuine doom Awakened now, we must admit Our graves shall be exhumed Isolate, discriminate your kind Live and die in fear Division and control entwined Uncovered puppeteer You know what's at the end of every path Twilight of the soul and crumbling of the mind Loss of everything that you've been fighting for Corruption in your veins, bleakness forevermore Melting wings of Icarus We fly close to the sun Rider of belligerence We burn and come undone Dormant in the deepest pit Resides our genuine doom Awakened now, we must admit Our graves shall be exhumed

...EVEN THE STARS HAVE TO DIE Agonizing celestial bodies tell the story of our fate Mesmerizing as melancholy, our structures just decay Entropy dictates our life And just like all the stars must die We're flowing through the stream of ice I see the end materialize The blind are following the blind Event horizon of the mind Our thoughts are misaligned There's nothing left to find Embrace the void Our world destroyed Come down to me, life withering Gravity tears us apart All the way back to the start Look in the mirror and see That regretful reflection is me Nothing that you've ever done Matters to the death of the sun Look in the mirror, break through That regretful reflection is you Because if even the stars have to die What can you expect of your meaningless life? Everything that's happened, just a blink of an eye For the universe within the endless time

about

The unavoidable path towards entropy is reflected in this melodic and atmospheric Black Metal album. Long-awaited sophomore release that offers a conceptual work entangled among the majestic nature of the cosmos, symphonic elements and the impending feeling of self-destruction.
