This is a Slipcase Digipack CD. The limited - edition CD comes in a 4 - panel digipack along with a 12 - page booklet, an exclusive slipcase, and an exclusive black polycarbonate disc. The highly productive Swiss atmospheric Black Metal band AARA is back with a bang, releasing 'Triade II: Hemera'. This is their 4th full - length album since 2019 and the second chapter of the Melmoth trilogy. Based on the 1820 Gothic novel 'Melmoth the Wanderer' by Charles Robert Maturin, and closely related in style and atmosphere to 2021's 'Triade I: Eos', each of the 6 brutally melodic tracks follows the book's mid - point narrative. It offers a brilliant examination of theism and scepticism through top - notch Black Metal. Although conceptually linked to the first part of the trilogy, 'Triade II: Hemera' takes the AARA sound to new progressive extremes. Defined by the beautiful lead melodies of composer/guitarist Berg, the record combines a raw, violent undercurrent with subtle rhythmic changes, off - beat riffs and refrains, and subdued vocal aggression. It also weaves in Christian choirs, the Jewish shofar horn, and traditional Indian vocal samples, making it another excellent offering from this confident and creative young band.

To enjoy this Aara Triade II: Hemera CD, simply insert it into your CD player. Make sure your CD player is in good working condition. When handling the CD, hold it by the edges to avoid scratching the playing surface. Store the CD in its provided slipcase when not in use to protect it from dust and damage. If the CD gets dirty, you can gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth from the center to the outer edge. Don't use any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can harm the disc.
