When
TWILIGHT’s self-titled debut was delivered in 2005 it was an explosive
new time for American black metal, where several stateside acts were
captivating the world’s attention. It was during these times that a
crew of henchmen hailing from said acts covertly assembled to formulate
a collaborative album, under the banner of TWILIGHT. Then comprised of
members of Nachtmystium, Leviathan, Kreig, Xasthur and Drautran, the
album’s gritty and varied content was an instant cult classic for the
genre. Due to personal differences within the unit, TWILIGHT
officially disbanded a year later, with no plans of a new record on the
horizon. Yet in early 2009 several members resurrected a modified
lineup. These alterations would expand this "follow-up release” into a
full-blown masterpiece. TWILIGHT’s massive lineup on the
upcoming Monument To Time End includes three founding members - Blake
Judd (Nachtmystium), Wrest (Leviathan, Lurker of Chalice), and N.
Imperial (Kreig), - and new recruits Stavros Giannopolous (The Atlas
Moth), Sanford Parker (Minsk, Buried At Sea) and Aaron Turner (Isis, Old Man Gloom),
as well as vocal contributions by Robert Lowe (Lichens, OM).on three
tracks. This wholly forward-thinking alignment of artists presents this
TWILIGHT release as an entirely new entity. Undoubtedly, the
harsh and cantankerous black metal underbelly of the foundation of the
unit is still intact throughout Monument To Time End, but it’s the
visual hell the listener feels personified through the more dissonant,
demented and ethereal realms of utter madness explored, where seemingly
psychotropic nightmares come to life with an ethereal, beautiful
vengeance
