'Arcana Rising' contains six sprawling metallic epics covering the 45-minute running time & was recorded at a variety of studios in the band's native Norway, with work originally commencing back to 2021. With production overseen by Apollyon himself, 'Arcana Rising' truly channels & encapsulates the spirit of the 80's, with inspiration from such masters of metal as Candlemass, Pentagram, Metallica & early Kreator, with musical nods to early Paradise Lost & Cathedral from the more extreme side of the doom spectrum, as well as including traces of the DNA from Apollyon & Bestial Tormentor's own prior work together with their cult doom act Lamented Souls, to create a sensational & majestic opus.
