Waerloga records are very proud to present you with two (!!) new
Za Frûmi albums released at the same time.
Legends act 3 - Cults
Legends act 4 - Orders
The release date: 4th of July 2008 (Worldwide)
The albums have been in the making during the last year now and pretty soon they realized they wanted to create not one but two releases at the same time.
Za Frûmi has two branches and the two upcoming releases are both in the Legends series. The previously released “Legends act 2 – Vampires” was a big hit and sold almost as good as the now sold out debut back in 2000. Legends act 2 was used in several films and receiving top scores in the dark ambient and fantasy scene. Among many the composer Ennio Morricone really enjoyed Legends act 2.
Both members of
Za Frûmi: Simon Kölle (also in
Musterion,
Abnocto) and Simon Heath ( also in
Atrium Carceri,
Abnocto) have several other projects on labels such as
Cold Meat Industry ,
Horus CyclicDaemon,
Major Label Industries and
Waerloga records. They wanted to dive deep into the world of
Za Frûmi and with two albums examine Cults and Orders.
The two digipacked albums have 11 tracks and are proof that
Za Frûmi is taking another step forward. In my humble opinion these two releases should have the same extraordinary good welcome as the debut album had even though this is instrumental music (with astonishing vocals and choirs!). The albums redefine the view on the project once again but without going into a new style or spoiling what already was great. The albums are perhaps the darkest and the most complete albums ever released in the genre! This is bold and big words I admit that and you might wonder if this is only hype? I promise you it´s not hype or me trying to sell
Za Frûmi. I don´t need to as they already have a big following and are considered a cult act.
Legends act 3 – CULTS (waer013)
The Cults of the world are seen as primitive and very harsh. They differ from the Orders as many of them live in the wild and in old abandoned temples of doom. The cults all share the common ground in that they worship a deity. Not all of them are sects of murder and blood but some of them most certainly are.
The music on this album is all about the Cults and the different way they approach the world.
Tracklist:
1. The Cult of the Great Eye
2. The Cult of the Dragon Maw
3. The Cult of the Ysa´ih
4. The Cult of the Queen of Heaven
5. The Cult of Nudero
6. The Cult of Mortalis
7. The Cult of Helzichor
8. The Cult of Azoot
9. The Cult of Genohsa
10. The Cult of Maelzeth
11. The Blood Cult of the Nosferatu
Legends act 4 – ORDERS (waer014)
The Orders of the world are the secret society´s with the power behind the thrones in many cities. They have often carefully graded and progressed teachings which are available only to a very selected few, an elite. The teachings lead to hidden and highly unique truths which bring personal benefits beyond the reach and even the understanding of the uninitiated. Secret rituals, oath´s and obligations vary but are always present. The Orders are esoteric with roots in different mysterious traditions from all over the world. Even though there of course exist military Orders they are set apart from the truly secretive ones with the real knowledge of the dark arts and the complexity of alchemy.
The music on this album is cinematic and explores the Orders of the world of
Za Frûmi.
1. Ordo Intedob
2. Ordo Inano
3. Ordo Ber´geliaz
4. Ordo Defelgratio Inano Arcturus
5. Ordo Vortokh
6. Ordo Botta Secreta
7. Ordo Custos Ari
8. Ordo Nindyn Vel´uss Noamuth
9. Ordo Asomir
10. Ordo templi sulfurium Draconis
11. Ordo Koum Janoh´te
