Obombrid Welkins CD, 2006
(Reference #AURA004CD)
Fourth album. While 'Ferly Centesms' was densely-packed with tortuous, dissonant, icy riffing, exploring the psychopathological recesses of sick, depressive, sarcastic Black Metal, 'Obombrid Welkins' has a deeper, heavier sound and longer tracks, mixing a more melodic approach with hypnotic, nostalgic atmospheres, chugging rhythmic sections, and panicked dissonances. There are some innovations: firstly, a different lyrical approach (almost all the lyrics have been written by Wulfhild, and deal with twisted phobias, like fear of heavy objects causing floors to collapse, pathophobia, alopaecia, and so forth); secondly influences from readings of Dr. William Luther Pierce and Prof. Kevin MacDonald, aesthetised in arcane, mythologising ways.
Price: £6.99 / 9,09

Ferly Centesms CD, 2004
(Reference #AURA003CD)
After six years of silence, this is the long-awaited third album. Totally necro, twisted, and depressive Black Metal, slower and more technical than its predecessors; like a blend of BETHLEHEM's 'S.U.I.Z.I.D.', VOIVOD's 'Killing Technology', and POSSESSED's 'Beyond the Gates'. Album of the Month in Metalireland.com.Crucial Blast Records describe the album as follows: 'Wow, this is some f***ed up black metal weirdness. It's hard to pinpoint exactly why Benighted Leams sounds so totally alien the first time you listen to it. Maybe it's the seemingly broken structures, as if the reverb-heavy music was pulled apart and then put back together with bad glue. Or possibly it's the bizarre beats, which really don't seem to follow any obvious rhythm. Ferly Centesms is definitely surreal, though, and quite freaking awesome, like a seriously damaged combo of old Voivod, the weirdest, most necro lo-fi black metal imaginable, and some stumbling, drum-machine driven math rock band. On HEAVY drugs. Benighted Leams will blaze through some sideways blasting, then settle into creepy ambience with random sounding muttering far off in the background. Elsewhere, the music chugs along in a funeral dirge reminscent of Bethlehem or Skepticism, and will just come to a sudden halt. Killer outsider-black metal weirdness!'
