Blut Aus Nord / P.H.O.B.O.S. - Triunity [Split]

Written by Vombatus on 30.05.2014 at 22:39

Hate it so much when the best song of an album is the preview one.... Already happened with Liber III and now this (I still have to check, but I guess you will be right )

I guess it depends what you like. The second BaN track is a bit Cosmosophy-ish, and for me goes on a bit with the effusiveness, and the last BaN track sounds like a more standard industrial track we've heard from them before. Still all good tracks though.

More surprise from this split. I really did not expect to see BaN go on cosmosophy side here. Not that it's a bad thing, though as I really love cosmosophy.
PHOBOS side is not bad either, and Glowing Phosphoros is fantastic. Think that vocals are too similar to those of Vindsval on this.
Overall, really excellent split. The BaN side is fantastic, and PHOBOS is also good. Hopefully, we will see more music De Librio Arbitrio in the future.

Ahrimanic Impulse Victory is my favorite song of the split. It's simply breathtaking and, in my opinion, serves as an excellent closer to the whole thing

hehe in my opinion that track is the weakest one. Vocals on the begining of it sound kina retarded. Moreover, the track has a odd and out of place uplifting atmosphere for me.
Other than that, I really love the rest of record. I've already said that I love everything about BaN tracks but also PHOBOS ones are very good. Especially, I love Glowing Phosphoros very much because of it's irritating nature.

Since triunity =p

I wish the rest of the tracks lived up to 'De Librio Arbitrio'

Kinda feels like BaN has lost its mojo in recent times. Feels like ages since a killer record (Liber II)

What about Liber III? Also I think the 777 series was brilliant.

Liber III was decent, but was the weakest of three; felt like Liber autopilot a bit. The 777 series was good, though I wouldn't call it brilliant in retrospect, The Desanctification comes close though (though that was before Liber II anyway). All three albums have strengths but also weaknesses, mostly in their sound and production.

Liber III could be great if it didn't have thin/sharp production.

True. It does sound a bit flat compared to the others. A bit simple too perhaps.

Still one of the best songs the band has put out a while.

P.H.O.B.O.S. part is sooo irritating (especially Ahrimanic Impulse Victory, godammit it's annoying).

Thankfully the BaN part has the excellent De Librio and Hùbris to make this a good release.

I thought the BaN part was really flat as well, especially compared to Debemur MoRTi, which I really liked. De Librio is definitely a good song, though, but the sad fact is it's the only good one.

Eh, Debemur MoRTi is probably the worst thing the band have ever done in all honesty. At least outside the meloblack stuff. There's almost no point to it, outside of what it commemorates. Terrible sound too. Really should drop that a notch in score actually.

Glowing Phosphoros is really good and one of my favourite tracks here but the BaN side is just outstanding. Very good Split indeed for them after the totally lackluster Debemur MORTi ep.

P.H.O.B.O.S. really reminds me of Zaraza a lot. Also can't stop listening to this record for the past few days.

I really need Blut Aus Nord to make a full album in the vein of this EP.

I'm convinced De Librio Arbitrio is one of BaN's best song of all times.

The BAN songs are unbelievable. I would love a full album in the vein of Triunity from them
