Here's some more dark ambience from Wicked Messenger courtesy of those Dark Ambient gurus at Plague Records in sunny Belgium. Is it sunny in Belgium? Not sure but the wife went to Ghent once and said it was lovely. Mind you judging by this the skies must be dark and grey and evil forbodes. This is some serious intense dark moving industrial sounding dark ambience. 'The River Disappeared' Sidewards is a limited CD only job.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

Reviews
"Looming ahead across a vast nocturnal plane, Wicked Messenger's "The River Disappeared Sidewards" is an enigmatic monolith guiding the listener into ancient and imposing terrain. Roaring reverberations, sustained boomings, and metallic delayed percussives evoke primordial and hostile landscapes on a world still forming and hostile to life. This is a river of liquid methane, or molten rock, disappearing into caliginous darkness inhabited by nightmare visions and half perceived terrors. The darkest of Plague's releases, Wicked Messenger delivers the soundtrack to cyclopean horrors." (Sid Redlin, USA)

"This album is absolutely massive from start to end, it has no weak moment whatsoever. Expect the finest ritual ambient, created by using the human voice, guitar-drones and tortured electronica. Wicked Messenger finally gives an added value again to the 'dark ambient' genre as many releases from the last few years were lacking originality and dedication, oftenly cloning/copying eachother. The River Disappeared Sidewards is definitely the most creepily release on Belgian Plague Recordings sofar. Black and sticky as tar but very contemplative. A standard!" (FdV, Belgium)
