Since seven years now the band releases at least one underground gem per year, after a full length traditionally an EP follows - and this time "Miasma of a Damned Soul" shows once again progress in songwriting and arrange-ments, even though the songs on the EP are rooted in old greek scene with influences of very old Rotting Christ, Zemial, Necromantia and Varathron - combined with their very own style that is called NON SERVIAM BLACK METAL - the German band unleashes another quality release that refuses to bow down to nowadays listening habits and still goes on with their very own special sound, not that sterile and same sounding one that everyone seems to produce these days. This is imperfect perfect, just like all the old 2nd Wave black metal bands that brought us closer to this music and ideology. If you cannot take the 2nd wave seriously anymore because it is old and rusty and not contemporary, you will not find comfort in Illum Adora. But if you still appreciate the musical direction once forged by the old BM Heroes from around the globe, you will definitely appreciate "Miasma of a Damned Soul".
