pou8enas Awesome deep drone ambient that needs to be heard. For me this is right up my alley, deep, dark and complex tracks that literary take you to the center of the Darkest Universe. I bought the CD immediately during my first listen in YouTube. Dark Ambient fans need to not miss this one

Planet Of The Doomed And Exiled 24:13
lyrics
Will I suffer here forever? Am I a cursed man who must now eke out his existence here forever? Am I one of those who wander around here spat out by life, restless, disconsolate? The voices of the desperate souls begging Aforgomon for mercy. The planet of the damned and exiled eats us up every day and spits us out again at night.
2.
Anti-Existence (The Infinite Beauty Of Eternal Torment, Of Those Whose Eyes Never Close) 21:54
lyrics
No water, no air, no night, no day. Silent voices louder than the horns of Mars. Only the dark monks celebrate their non-existence here, singing their toneless songs, and sacrificing life and death to the antithesis of all that is. The great nothingness gives birth to infinite hatred, love's brother, father of murder, enemy of life.
3.
Dance Of The Dark Planets 24:28
lyrics
Here at the end of the one universe where absolute nothingness engulfs everything, there they dance. Red giant, white dwarf - they dance to the rhythm of eternity. God is just a little light, just another fodder for black holes.......... Not even Amberville's madness could capture this absolute evil on screen! For I stand here at the end of all being and devour life and death!

about

After four years of silence, the Ambient project Lousberg releases another lengthy opus entitled.... LOUSBERG hails from Aachen and creates sonic art in that old vein that is praised so much. And it will come as welcome news to all those fans of deep and droning Ambient that Lousberg is still using the tricks that have made all his past releases perfect examples of the genre.

One of the many strongpoints of …. is its monumental nature. Wavering patterns of sound appear out of a void of darkness, melt into other drones and build walls of oscillation, strong enough to draw any listener in. Lousberg's newest entry runs for over 70 minutes and is an enticing journey into feelings of cosmic nihilism, melancholy but also bittersweet yearning. Titles like „Anti-Existence“ frankly state that this is by no means superficial fantasy-based material, but a deeply trance inducing meditation of downfall and despair. The recording is heavily inspired by Clark Ashton Smith, an influence that definitely shows.

Still, there is a certain proudness and epic nature to the sounds used in ….. . Especially the title track „Planet of the Doomed and Exiled“ makes for a strong opener, immediately showing that Lousberg is a true master of his craft who is able to manipulate pleasant analogue tones to make them reach into the deepest depths of human consciousness. Mandatory for fans of old school Ambient!
