Oculus Vacui is an embodiment manifested with the explicit purpose of devotion to the Dark Divine and the divulgation of hidden energies to unify with the vestiges of an ancient dormant Spiritual whole. And by recitation of the words of invocation and the chants within the practice of the rites of the Arte of Magic we unlock the boundaries of the Physical Plane and open the gates to the Void-Abyss.
Oculus Vacui lyrical content is that of which each text is a hymn to invoke the Dark Divine which originates in a vast foundation of Luciferian Gnosis and the Left Hand Path. The music of Oculus Vacui is best to be described as hypnotic due to its repetitive nature.
In ritual practice bringing forth sound vibration is a means for the creation of immaterial, spiritual substance. This sound, which in its pure essence, holds within transcendental qualities and vibrates in the Aether. It is an alchemical process of transmutation and of piercing through the levels of conscious comprehension into a state of altered consciousness hidden in the depths of an unconscious Void-Nothingness realm. The aim of these practices is to dissolve and nullify by unification in the state of Emptiness with the Dark Divine.

Some of the best raw black metal I’ve heard in a while. So many infectious riffs it’s absurd. Easily my favorite release from lamp of Murmuur. HyperboreanFrost
