More reviews by
Artist: ATUM / ROTO VISAGE
Title: Syndrom Cotarda
Format: CD
Label: Beast Of Prey (@)
Rated: * * * * *
Split of two exponents of murky sounds. Well known from dark ambient labels project ATUM in cooperation with american dark project ROTO VISAGE created over 40 minutes disc which presents heavy and funeral dark ambient as title syndrome. It seems like a concept album; infact People with Cotard's Syndrome believe that they do not exist. Cotard's sufferers complains of having lost everything: possessions, part of or entire body, often believing that he or she has died and is a walking corpse. Paradoxically, being "dead" often gives the patient the nation of being immortal. This form of depressive disorder was described by psychiatrist, Jules Cotard, in 1880. The sound is intense, dramatic, utterly dark and decadent and the listener is slowly drowning in a wet and depressive nightmare. The six moments are very caustic, dark minimalist and claustrophobic and the mix between the two exponents is very intensive and well done. A good work for the genre's lovers and a good starts for the beginners. Have a look and a hear at the whole 'Beast of Prey's catalogue... you'll be very surprised!
