Beastiary by Everto Signum
After ten years of silence, Everto Signum skulk out of chasmic caverns to unleash “Beastiary” – a concept album inspired by destructive powers of Nature. The band stays true to their elemental background by writing an immersive story that guides the listener through a chain reaction of natural disasters. These calamities are beastialized – manifested as wild uncontrollable beasts exhibiting intrinsic animalistic shapes, traits and behaviours. Written in English, the expressively poetic lyrical narrative portrays a journey from an ice-covered mountain top through a valley, down to the depths of a meromictic lake and finally into a perennial forest to witness the dreadful wrath of ancient forces.
Featuring members from CARMA, LACRAU and GAEREA.
