While we await Dernier Souffle to haunt our ears with Where Death Echoes on September 30, 2025, Alastor plunges us into the universe of his solo project, Devious Lust. All instruments and atmospheres come from Alastor himself, already a master of melancholy and violence behind Dernier Souffle.
Atmospheric and Ritual Black Metal
Carnal Liturgy explores desire and violence under ceremonial airs. The compositions are both hypnotic and oppressive, with screams and whispers intertwined with melodic passages, creating a dense and immersive sonic universe. Each track hits with intensity, showcasing Alastor’s technical and emotional mastery.
The album’s emotional power and ritualistic strength confirm that Devious Lust deserves the full attention of atmospheric black metal enthusiasts.
A Recognizable Signature
Fans of Dernier Souffle will recognize Alastor’s expertise: impeccable production, carefully crafted atmospheres, and impressive musical cohesion. The solo project takes darker and more carnal paths, but the artist’s signature touch is immediately apparent.
Conclusion
Carnal Liturgy is an intense journey through atmospheric black metal, where Alastor blends desire and violence with ritual precision. A solo project that confirms his talent and serves as a compelling prelude while awaiting the next chapter of Dernier Souffle.
