Inquisition

Black Metal - Colombia / United States

There are certain cycles in the rise and fall of bands that form a discernible pattern. One of the stations in this process is the break-though, when a group rises from the murky underground into the sphere of heightened mainstream attention. In the case of WATAIN for example, this transition can be pinpointed to a specific album, ‘Lawless Darkness’ (2010).

It may seem a rather daring to attribute such a moment to INQUISITION’s forthcoming seventh full-length ‘Bloodshed Across The Empyrean Altar Beyond The Celestial Zenith’ in advance. Yet even with the first spin of this record, any doubt and thought of hyperbole should disappear. The American black metal duo has obviously reached a level of confidence, maturity, and mastery of song writing, technical execution as well as strength of production that this masterpiece will mark a milestone in a career that has already gathered momentum.

While INQUISITION have so far grown without full attention paid by the metal mainstream, they have nevertheless amassed a huge underground following. Such a pivotal shift always comes with a risk. The most loyal adherents might be antagonised if a band strays too far from course in their attempt to reach for the stars. There is no danger for this to happen with ‘Bloodshed…’. Notable changes from the highly praised ‘Obscure Verses For The Multiverse’ (2013) are rather gradual than revolutionary, but still prove decisive. Dagon has slightly lowered his vocal pitch, which sounds less amphibian and the fiercer sound of his voice leaves a stronger impact. INQUISITION’s song writing has been tightened and appears more focused without losing the trademark epic majesty. Each track hits its mark, there are no fillers. This album represents the culmination and peak of a long term gradual evolution.

INQUISITION hail from the US city of Seattle, Washington although originally formed by Dagon in the South American state of Colombia in 1989. Three demos were released during this early thrash metal period, before the frontman moved back to the United States in 1996. There Dagon was joined by drummer Incubus in 1997. Their debut full-length ‘Into The Infernal Regions Of The Ancient Cult’ (1998) immediately created a buzz in the netherworld of the black metal genre. Their impact on the scene deepened with each of the following four albums and the duo’s much sought after back catalogue has meanwhile been reissued by Season of Mist in its entirety.

With ‘Bloodshed Across The Empyrean Altar Beyond The Celestial Zenith’, INQUISITION are about to conquer the world. Resistance is futile.

• Incubus : Drums

Obscure Verses for the Multiverse

By Kim Kelly

Season of Mist

December 9, 2013

Inquisition ’s last album, 2011’s Ominous Doctrines of the Perpetual Mystical Macrocosm was hailed as an instant classic, and rightly so. The Seattle black metal duo had been quiet for several years before its release; since then, though, they've thrown themselves into the business of being a full-time band. Their recent signing to major indie Season of Mist is a satisfying notch on the bedpost for vocalist/guitarist Dagon and drummer Incubus, who've reacted to their alliance with a “big label” by changing nothing whatsoever about their music or their approach towards occult exploration. Fans never expected them to react any differently, and the great wailing and gnashing of teeth that usually accompanies the announcement of a beloved underground band stumbling into the spotlight has been absent. After all, as even the webboard warriors seem to know, a new album is another opportunity for the band to stalk in and show everyone else how it’s done.

Obscure Verses for the Multiverse picks up where its predecessor left off. As usual, Dagon’s guitar work blends seamlessly with Incubus’ drums, and they remain merrily bass-free. Like some bizarro-world version of (until recently) bassless grind savants Pig Destroyer, they’ve hit upon and perfected a formula that would leave a lesser band sounding flat and soulless. Inquisition built their reputation upon a small selection of ironclad riffs and dynamic devices—every note follows a predetermined script, one that they’ve had memorized for decades, and it works.

Consider “Darkness Flows Towards Unseen Horizons”. A characteristic down-tempo melody opens the song, which hurtles immediately into a relentless blast, then back again. The band’s fondness for a good mid-song tempo shift has become one of their calling cards, and an Inquisition tune bereft of its appearance feels a bit off-kilter. Groove-laden tracks like “Master of the Cosmological Black Cauldron” and “Inversion of Ethereal White Stars” are beefy head-nodders that feature some of Dagon’s best guitar work as he manipulates and torments his strings into all manner of eerie tones. Outside of his propensity for note-bending, it’s worth noting the man’s uncanny knack for molding a gloomy shred of melody into an improbable earworm. While there are no obvious “hits” like on Ominous Doctinres , the album is still about as catchy as a pure black metal record has any right to be. A triumphantly powerful melodic break forms the centerpiece of a “Spiritual Plasma Evocation”, a track that despite its lack of ravens or winterdemonry, emphatically gives legs to the Immortal comparisons that have dogged the band for years.

The songs’ carefully cultivated atmosphere and aim towards an organic-sounding production leaves plenty of room for Dagon’s esoteric tales of space, time, and the Devil to unfold. This album is focused even more heavily on the cosmic and the metaphysical than past efforts, and the lyrics are an absolute trip. As the title track goes, "Only darkness in the skies/ When you came light was shined/ Wisdom from cosmic snakes of dimensions you create/ Spawning humans as a slave serving kings of astral thrones." Here’s hoping you can understand them, though, since Dagon’s infamous vocals are in full display.

His froggy croak may sound like a direct descendent of Abbath’s own strangled ribbeting, but comes from a far more evil place; it’s the former’s effort to sound as inhuman and alien as possible to accompany their occult cosmic ceremonies. In truth, though they began life as a thrash band, Inquisition still predates Immortal by several years. While the two bands developed and released their first important works during the same time period, it’s worth noting that Dagon was already croaking up a storm before Abbath even donned the paint. It seems almost passé to make a reference to the Norwegian demons here, but the parallel between the two entities’ melodic make up (not to mention that voice) is undeniable.

As the story goes, Inquisition originally formed while Dagon was living in Colombia in 1989, predating the famed Second Wave’s most active period and ensuring that the band’s early days would be spent learning from greats like Reencarnación, Blasfemia, and Parabellum. They’ve been there since the beginning, and will be here making outstanding records long after the rest of their peers have given up the ghost. Dagon’s 1996 move to the United States only aided them in their mission, and now, it seems as though this cult favorite is finally beginning to reap the rewards of a lifetime of hard graft and black magic.

Agonia Records Draw Backlash For Releasing New Inquisition Album Despite Frontman’s Dagon’s Past Child Porn-Related Charges

Agonia Records have come under fire for their recent signing of Inquisition . You may recall that the long-running black metal band were dropped from Season Of Mist back in 2018 after it came to light that the band’s frontman Jason “Dagon” Weirbach had accepted a plea bargain in relation to possession of child pornography back in 2009 . Court documents at the time found Weirbach initially charged with Unlawful Display of Sexually Explicit Material and Obstructing a Law Enforcement Officer.

In the aftermath of the past charges coming to light, the band were soon dropped from a tour with Satyricon and the 2018 ‘ Maryland Deathfest ‘ as well. Weirbach at the time issued this statement blaming an ‘unwise choice of actions’  and claiming ‘I was absolutely innocent of all charges.’ His statement seemed at least contradictory in part to the police reports from the court records , which stated that images depicting minors presumed to be as young as 10-12 years old engaged in sexual acts were found to have been recently deleted in the unallocated space of his computer.

Adding to the problematic nature of Inquisition ‘s recent signing and November 20th release of their new album “ Black Mass For A Mass Grave ” were accusations of the band’s past ties to nazism, allegations which the band have publicly denied in the past .

Upon being called out for the signing/release on social media, Agonia Records initially defended their actions with responses such as the ones seen below, which only added fuel to the fire.

MetalSucks now report that the label have currently put their official Twitter profile on protected and are said to have blocked a number of people who complained about the signing on social media.

Touring the Top 10 Moscow Metro Stations

By Claudia Looi 2 Comments

Komsomolskaya metro station looks like a museum. It has vaulted ceilings and baroque decor.

Hidden underground, in the heart of Moscow, are historical and architectural treasures of Russia. These are Soviet-era creations – the metro stations of Moscow.

Our guide Maria introduced these elaborate metro stations as “the palaces for the people.” Built between 1937 and 1955, each station holds its own history and stories. Stalin had the idea of building beautiful underground spaces that the masses could enjoy. They would look like museums, art centers, concert halls, palaces and churches. Each would have a different theme. None would be alike.

The two-hour private tour was with a former Intourist tour guide named Maria. Maria lived in Moscow all her life and through the communist era of 60s to 90s. She has been a tour guide for more than 30 years. Being in her 60s, she moved rather quickly for her age. We traveled and crammed with Maria and other Muscovites on the metro to visit 10 different metro stations.

Moscow subways are very clean

To Maria, every street, metro and building told a story. I couldn’t keep up with her stories. I don’t remember most of what she said because I was just thrilled being in Moscow.   Added to that, she spilled out so many Russian words and names, which to one who can’t read Cyrillic, sounded so foreign and could be easily forgotten.

The metro tour was the first part of our all day tour of Moscow with Maria. Here are the stations we visited:

1. Komsomolskaya Metro Station  is the most beautiful of them all. Painted yellow and decorated with chandeliers, gold leaves and semi precious stones, the station looks like a stately museum. And possibly decorated like a palace. I saw Komsomolskaya first, before the rest of the stations upon arrival in Moscow by train from St. Petersburg.

2. Revolution Square Metro Station (Ploshchad Revolyutsii) has marble arches and 72 bronze sculptures designed by Alexey Dushkin. The marble arches are flanked by the bronze sculptures. If you look closely you will see passersby touching the bronze dog's nose. Legend has it that good luck comes to those who touch the dog's nose.

3. Arbatskaya Metro Station served as a shelter during the Soviet-era. It is one of the largest and the deepest metro stations in Moscow.

4. Biblioteka Imeni Lenina Metro Station was built in 1935 and named after the Russian State Library. It is located near the library and has a big mosaic portrait of Lenin and yellow ceramic tiles on the track walls.

5. Kievskaya Metro Station was one of the first to be completed in Moscow. Named after the capital city of Ukraine by Kiev-born, Nikita Khruschev, Stalin's successor.

6. Novoslobodskaya Metro Station  was built in 1952. It has 32 stained glass murals with brass borders.

7. Kurskaya Metro Station was one of the first few to be built in Moscow in 1938. It has ceiling panels and artwork showing Soviet leadership, Soviet lifestyle and political power. It has a dome with patriotic slogans decorated with red stars representing the Soviet's World War II Hall of Fame. Kurskaya Metro Station is a must-visit station in Moscow.

8. Mayakovskaya Metro Station built in 1938. It was named after Russian poet Vladmir Mayakovsky. This is one of the most beautiful metro stations in the world with 34 mosaics painted by Alexander Deyneka.

9. Belorusskaya Metro Station is named after the people of Belarus. In the picture below, there are statues of 3 members of the Partisan Resistance in Belarus during World War II. The statues were sculpted by Sergei Orlov, S. Rabinovich and I. Slonim.

10. Teatralnaya Metro Station (Theatre Metro Station) is located near the Bolshoi Theatre.
