Founded 1992 in Steinkjer, Norway symphonic pagan black metal classicists WALLACHIA return with their fourth and most grandiose album to date.Monumental Heresy is a wonderful culmination of years of heartfelt dedication to the craft by mastermind Lars Stavdal, a continuation of the rich hybrid experimentation of last full length Shunya (2012) and a simultaneous backward glance towards the harshly beautiful atmosphere of the band’s earlier works.This is the first WALLACHIA album that has been recorded as a full band and also introduces guest musicians: Athelstan from the UK’s FOREFATHER arranged and performed the evocative album intro/outro and Italian female vocalist Aeterna (NAHABAT/XVARHNAH) provides a mellifluous lead on ‘The Parallel Fate of Dreams’.Monumental Heresy carves a new chapter for a band who have only just begun the next stage of their deeply personal journey into a majestic dreamland.
