Funeral Mist manifests rarely but when it does, then it is in exceptional glory. While the taint of the pandemonium that was “Salvation” is to never disappear, for it undeniably set new standards within Black Metal and beyond in terms of musical violence, chaos and the channelling of ominous spiritual energies, “Maranatha” materializes like the unadulterated omen of the end of times, like a glowing pitch black pit to whose appeal to jump within nothing can resist. The violence and the musically bizarre are still there, displayed with a rare mastery but a thorough work on atmospheres and structures and the addition of complex layers of ill sounds make this new album by Funeral Mist a renewed challenging experience, as perilous for your mind’s sanity as it is for your soul’s deliverance. Unique, unmistakable for anything else, Funeral Mist stands with splendour as the epitome of extremism. It is only way beyond one’s limits that an encounter with the dimension summoned by “Maranatha” is made possible, an encouperilous as this work is cruel.
