Description
Synteleia - The Secret Last Syllable
SYNTELEIA’s highly anticipated second album, “The Secret Last Syllable”!
The natural successor to the band’s stout debut album, “The Secret Last Syllable” is a significant milestone for SYNTELEIA. With nine mystical songs thematically based on the Cthulhu Mythos by H.P. Lovecraft and The Necronomicon, “The Secret Last Syllable” comes to leave the indelible mark of SYNTELEIA on the footsteps of the world-renowned Hellenic black metal genre.
Indeed, where the band could be seen as acolytes before, now SYNTELEIA can count themselves among the masters of classic Greek black metal, delivering a malevolent apocryphal opus to be remembered for the years to come.
A dark and sepulchral atmosphere with continuous scaling; guitars that alternate in fast, medium, and slow tempos with daemonic and often melodic riffing; accompanied by ubiquitous keys and symphonic instruments, featuring angelic female soprano vocals as astral highlights, alternating with growling male vocals, getting the chords to the extreme; intuitive bass lines and hellish drum blasts erupting from the glorious past, this album is addressed to an occult/mystical-loving audience.
