bmurator Italian Black Metal. A one man, F. or Francesco Del Vecchio, project. Once again a project I knew nothing about until a few days ago & once again I owe a huge debt of gratitude to Atti 🖤 for taking me here & once again it is a stellar project! Atti 🖤: I owe you loads! The two halves really complement each other perfectly & go extremely well together! Lyrics would be nice! I love Francesco's work so much I needed everything he had made... :) Clearly, I have no favourites! Highly recommended!!!

about

“The Burning Bridges” is a sonic voyage encompassing the perpetual struggle of opposites, a convergence of two different aspects of Taur-Im-Duinath.

The first half, a revision of “Randir”, represents the past, “the old self”, constantly struggling and aspected with anger and fury. It can be epitomized as a fierce storm assailing the Earth, denying her peace.
While “Bare Boughs” represents a completely different side, a series of chants and hymns carried in a calm and intimate way, yet clad in the robes of melancholy and longing. In the manner of dancing flames dispelling the assailing darkness, the “new self” is reduced to the foundation of its essence, to its bare bones. Bereft of all that is superfluous and superficial. Through acceptance, the wisdom of silence and quiet contemplation, the “new” self becomes spiritually aware. To reach balance and awareness, thus, the bridges of our past must be burned.

Taur-Im-Duinath's endeavor is marked with many flavours and inspirations. While "Randir" combines harshness and fierceness of black metal together with layers of atmosphere and emotionally imbued lyrics, "Bare Boughs" is infused with introspection and melancholy, a gentler and stripped down sound. It is a neofolk masterpiece, definitely inspired by the likes of Agalloch, Of The Wand And The Moon and Hexvessel. Two sides with two different soundscapes. From bleakness, fury and impetuosity, to warm, intimate and quiet respite...

Loose the path through the branches and the boughs, lose the way, only to find the self and the consciousness of the mind ...

about

Taur-Im-Duinath Eboli, Italy

Taur-Im-Duinath (Forest Between Rivers) was founded in 2015 by F., as a mean to seek the rhythm, the pattern, the essence that lies within the turning of the seasons, the dance of the leaves in the wind, the growing of roots in the depths, to learn from the transitory yet ever changing nature permeating the Universe. And to transform this Vision into aural landscapes. ... more
