THREE EYES OF THE VOID "The Atheist" [CD, Digipak]
2023 - Black Metal from Ukraine
Detailed Description
Three Eyes of the Void started in 2017 as a one-man studio project by Dmytro Kvashnin with the release of EP/MinibLP "The Moment of Storm". Alexander Kasiarum has been invited to record the drums and Oleg Olgerd Rubanov (worked on 1914, Kroda) to mix and produce the release at MuzProduction Recordings, Lviv, Ukraine. Shortly after the debut release began an unfortunate attempt to record the first LP. However the LP has been put on shelf prior to entering the studio due to absence of musicians to perform it live. In late 2021 Dmytro met Arkadiusz Niziolek (ex-Sacrilegium) in Gdansk, Poland and invited him to join Three Eyes of the Void on drums. Quickly after that Marcin Urban (ex-Sacrilegium) took over on the guitars and Jakub Milszewski joined on bass. The story of THE ATHEIST has been inspired by the theme of "Death of God and Morality". Romantic fascination with various new ideas of the meaning of life in the quest to fill the newly created void. A futile attempt to pull oneself out of the swamp to the stars. Compared to the debut EP the music direction expanded into epic, atmospheric, melancholic, progressive, post-black-metal areas to match the scale of the story presented in lyrics.
