Mare Cognitum - Solar Paroxysm 2xLP

Label: Extraconscious RecordsYear: 2024Format: VinylGenre: Atmospheric Black MetalCountry: USAMARE COGNITUM – Solar Paroxysm (2021) MARE COGNITUM, composed entirely of Portland’s Jacob Buczarski, returned in 2021 for its first solo release in half a decade, unleashing one hour of atmospheric, cosmic black metal on Solar Paroxysm – now finally repressed on vinyl by I, Voidhanger and Buczarski’s very own Extraconscious Records. Stunning earworm melodies and soaring guitar leads emerge from a dense sea of blastbeats as Buczarski screams provocative lyrics about humanity’s influence on the universe. From beginning to end, Solar Paroxysm lives up to its title, with the latter word meaning “a sudden and powerful expression of strong feeling.” FFO: Blut Aus Nord, Void Omnia, Darkspace Solar Paroxysm by Mare Cognitum
