This is a material loaded with pure magic, with lyrics about the awakening of consciousness and perception beyond what human eyes are destined to see.
With sounds wrapped in ritualistic environments and poetic devotion to Lilith!

Here's environmentalist blackened crust/d-beat from Guatemala, which is a quite rare thing. Found it thanks to gnwp.ru and D-Beat Warriors. The demo is fairly short and consists of 5 reasonably raw sounding tracks. As far as I can understand, the lyrics are about environmentalism, anti-neoliberalism, and native/pre-Columbian civilizations of the Americas (not sure about the last one, though).

It's the first time when I receive a demo from Guatemala. Of course, "Forever Black Metal..." sounds VERY amateur-ish in terms of both production and songwriting, but that was expected. There isn't much info about Ab Eterno, except that they're a duo from Guatemala City, and one of their source of inspiration were WWII songs, particularly the Red Army Choir (track #3; the other tracks are just standard black metal stuff). Somewhat reminding me of Voland; and just like Voland's only EP, "Forever Black Metal..." was released under the terms of Creative Commons license.
