Aura by GOD The Barbarian Horde

Maybe a more atmospheric epos due to its use of passages with extensive keyboards, Aura is at the same time a more aggressive and raw creation when it's seen in opposition with the previous releases. The same mélange of styles, a very specific characteristic of our combo: Gothic/Doom/Death Metal combined with parts of Black Metal and traditional inserts. The novelty of this album consists, without any doubt, in the introduction of new elements, like those Electro arrangements which defy the typical approach, and the traditional tunes inspired from the beautiful folklore in Bucovina. The result is a special consistency between the Metal genre background and the local legacy for emotional threnody. Without question the album has the merit of flirting with the Avantgarde by trying new and uncharted musical territories and it marks the end of the Doom/Gothic Metal period of the band and the beginning of a brand new one: the pagan and folkloric era!

This album is dedicated to the memory of our best friend Raschitor Neculai 'Bobitza' (R.I.P.)!

Remastered Edition.

They are returning for a fulminant epos of Barbarian Metal with an Epic Ire... Violent visions marked by a sacrificial cult and reshaped under the blade of blood! A conceptual vision dedicated to the old Barbarian and long forgotten traditions, that speaks about Folklore heritage based on Dacian history & mythology and the ancient ways of those barbaric people!
