Samsas Traum - Ura

Samsas Traum has garnered a large international reputation for their fiery brand of intellectual terrorism, black metal, provocative traits and sheer extremism. Their album "a. Ura" is simply a new opus and unlike the previous releases it marks a new chapter of this outstanding band, as it also reveals a totally unexpected and deeply romantic side. This album is far more accessible, buoyant and lively, featuring beautifully arranged and orchestrated musical gems. But this double album still consists of tracks that spew forth a dark and horrifying attitude where strings merge with choral chants as majestic organ swells and percussion and neo-classical soundscapes quickly slide in and out of the song.
