Lyrinx - Ending the Circle of Life EP (2009)

Previously on OPIUM HUM:
Lyrinx - Nihilistic Purity (2007)

Two songs and just under 35 minutes of torturous, depressive UK black metal. Ending the Circle of Life isn't Lyrinx's most essential release -- that would be the Nihilistic Purity EP -- but it's great, provided that you like music that reminds you of complete emotional desolation and suicide.

Track listing:
1. No Failure in Suicide
2. Isolation

Summoning the dead

Lyrinx - Nihilistic Purity (2007)

Muddy, blown-out, extremely effective depressive black metal. Rarely are releases so appropriately and literally named. Put on Nihilistic Purity the next time you peel off all of your skin and replace it with mud and leaves.

Track listing:
1. Tides of Self Destruction
2. Nihilistic Purity
3. Another Life Ready to End
4. Deconstruction of the Will to Live
5. Exit - The Pain of Existence

This is the only way
Can you feel the burden?
There is no other way
