I’m struggling to understand why this band isn’t better known. One of the most consistently engaging and vital discographies in black metal or progressive metal - twelve full-lengths (thirteen if you count the Dinner auf Uranos album) without a single dud. To be fair, I’m guilty of forgetting about them far more often than I should – I have more than 1,000 plays of them, but that still feels like far fewer than I should have, given the size of their discography and how long I’ve been on last.fm. German BM seems like one of the most underrated scenes – there are so many great bands (these guys, Lunar Aurora, Nagelfar, Waldgeflüster, Finsterforst [if you count them as BM], etc.) that seem to garner little to no English-language discussion. At least The Ruins of Beverast have gained some of the attention they deserve. They’re also the only act I mentioned with mostly English-language lyrics. Maybe that’s why.

"Stille: Das nagende Schweigen" was the album that really got teenage me into listening to black metal. It was shown to me by a much older dude that I met on a questionable forum who called himself 'Nebelfrost'. Good times... :D Yo Nebelforst if you read this pls PM. I miss chatting with you about the latest black metal releases via ICQ.

New album is fantastic. A tad short, but it sounds phenomenal! I'm loving wiederganger blues

New album is superb so far. It's sort of like the perfect blend of Sequenzen einer Wanderung and their black metal style, with some more '70s prog influences thrown in for good measure (love those vintage-sounding synths). And I'm only on the second track. This may end up being my favourite of their works since the Nektar albums, though I will certainly have to listen more to evaluate.

Man, I feel like a moron for forgetting about this band for so long. This is some amazing stuff.

Yeah they do deserve a bigger audience outside of Germany. Sadly, German black metal is overshadowed by French black metal

" Nach langen Überlegungen und zahlreichen verworfenen Ideen steht nun auch der Albumtitel, und auch damit steht das Werk in einer gewissen Nähe zu „Nektar“: 2004 befriedigte ebenfalls keine der im Vorfeld diskutierten Ideen, und erst im Recordingprozess kristallisierte sich ein schlüssiger Titel heraus. Unser jüngstes und mit zahllosen Verweisen auf die Bandgeschichte gespicktes Kind wird „Mogontiacum (Nachdem die Nacht herabgesunken…)“ heißen, die leicht veränderte und erweiterte Titelliste folgt in Bälde. Der vor rund eineinhalb Jahren verkündete Arbeitstitel „Wiedergänger Blues“ ist passé, das ihm zugrunde liegende Konzept eines Zweiteilers wurde verworfen, weil es uns zu starr erschien. Der Inhalt des in sich geschlossenen „Mogontiacum“ bleibt von dieser Entscheidung aber unberührt" (https://www.facebook.com/Nocte-Obducta-189142951148369/)

Despite Umbriel not being what I wanted it to be, I have finally come to the conclusion that it's one of the best albums of 2013.

I'm about 50/50 with the sound on Umbriel. The prog atmosphere is rich and beautiful, but I was hoping for a really atmospheric prog/black metal album.
