A week ago, I received an email that contained one of the sickest albums that I have heard in recent times. The message was from Bon Vincent Fry about his new Lamentations of the Ashen album, EKIMMV. I will tell you what I told him: after many repeated listens, I’m fucking way beyond just impressed! Every song on this album is a dark majestic voyage to a universe where the evil thoughts of others are murdered by our protective black dragons. I know what depression is, and Lamentations of the Ashen’s music is truly empowering, which helps to keep my monsters away. Bon Fry’s musical vision is so fucking awesome, it makes me want to build the world’s largest speaker so I can blast this album for every known and unknown galaxy to hear. From the first note of “Veiled In Clairaudient Litany,” this record became something that will be apart of my life for a long time to come. Lamentations of the Ashen is able to work radical black magic with they way he writes his songs, because they are so fucking transcendental. What makes me really stoked is that he said we could share this album with our CVLT Nation readers. So right here, right now, we are streaming Lamentations of the Ashen’s EKIMMV in full, plus you can download the album HERE!
