STURMAST - 'Ibis Redibis Nunquam In Bello Peribis' CD (Cold Meat Industry)
Hungarian act Sturmast play folk-influenced martial industrial music. Here real musicians play real instruments, thus introducing the good old band-feeling to the martial industrial scene. The music contains powerful, eruptive percussion (toms, snare, bass drum), haunting violin and cello, acoustic guitar, and a selection of traditional folk instruments. Absorbing atmosphere links the compositions, which vary from hypnotic and monotonous to marching and repetitive, from moody and experimental to beautiful, melancholy-filled delicate. The lyrics, portraying the fight of the historic and modern, spiritual and secular, uplifting and ill-fated, are mostly in Hungarian, with English translations in the stylish digipak with booklet. Reminiscent of fellow Hungarians Kriegsfall-U, Karjalan Sissit or Toroidh.
