Arcanist Hyperborea

The second album by the French dungeon synth duo Arcanist. The band explores some more varied musical elements including black metal and doom on this sophomore release. Arcanist's signature Berlin School sound is also represented, along with medieval and baroque styles. The sonic universe has expanded and deepened for this release as the journey now takes us to the rapidly approaching ice age that is Hyperborea. Hyperborea is based on the Hyperborean stories of the American poet and fantasist Clark Ashton Smith (1893-1961)
