SHANHAI, by Inferno Requiem

SHANHAI

Ädäm "Shanhai" represents the perfect agglomeration of Inferno Requiem´s previous work. Ruthless hardness intermingled with melodious finesse, all worn by Fog´s diabolical voice! A must-have!
Please take a look at our German review:
www.waldhalla.com/online-magazin/musik/musikempfehlungen/inferno-requiem-shanhai/ Favorite track: Shanhai (Grand Rage from Mountain and Sea).

crazyhelltw In a sense, IR's latest release "Shanhai" continues the concept of previous full-length album, Nüwa. Fog eruditely explores the unholy and unorthodox side of the ancient Chinese myths that may be related to extraterrestrial creatures and conspiracies. The album is varied from IR's previous works, less aggressive but remaining raw and cold, more like to illustrate the stories from the treacherously distant memory of the past to the listeners in a fluid way.

darkenedspirit (Midgard_OBM) A great release and a nice homage for the 20th years Anniversary album of the band. We find on this record a mix of different albums, the primitive and bestial side of "Gloomy Night Stories", a suffocating and deep atmophere that we found on "Moon" Ep. The whole is quite melodic with always a raw sound, the vocals of Fog very good and hateful and a great work has been done.

about

Inferno Requiem - Shanhai, the 20th yr Anniversary Album

"Shanhai is a series demonstration of potentially hidden myth regarding epic legends in ancient mythology. A clandestine pagan folklore first-ever written from the stand point of notorious nemeses, who often depicted as the villains in most official historical documents/records. The album would now illustrate these untold ingredients with unique perspective while re-presenting with the purest underground sound in black metal.
While the simple-yet-profound debut “Gloomy Night Stories” provides primitive and aggressive punches in the face; In “Moon” one would be surrounded by the toxic taste within those ghastly, ritual atmospheres; and then the mechanical, cold apocalyptic “Nüwa” infuses with strong Sc-fi approaches regarding ancient alien bio-invasion to human evolution. “Shanhai” in fact, consists inherently sort of a “fusional compound” of those above while some majestic momentum also added to the mix. It would unequivocally mark the most monumental period over the band’s two decades span.

All dedicated to Agony & Chaos.
