Certainly to be counted among the most talented and visionary contemporary metal musicians, GG sets COSMIC PUTREFACTION aside for a moment to give space to the sophomore release by VERTEBRA ATLANTIS, a project that sees him grappling with a progressive, dissonant and symphonic black/death metal, on the border between late EMPEROR and GORGUTS.
Accompanied by the excellent RR (drums) and GS (rhythm guitars), authors of a masterful performance, GG makes no secret of considering "A Dialogue With The Eeriest Sublime" the most complete and mature work he has released so far. The album is a large canvas on which the Italian musician has poured all his creative flair thanks to intense symphonic brushstrokes perfectly embedded in the geometric shapes evoked by his twisted black/death metal riffs, supported by an equally powerful rhythm section.

"Manifestaties van de Ontworteling" (Manifestations of the Uprooting) boldly ventures into experimental soundscapes while preserving its eerie ambiance.

Captured live, utilizing vintage analog audio equipment, the album delivers a raw and genuine sonic journey. The band's objective was not merely to produce music but to forge an experience that surpasses conventional limits, pushing the boundaries of creativity

Recorded in isolation, “Havuportaali” blends live instrumentation, looping, and digital manipulation. The raw, barbaric simplicity of the drum tracks, shaped through a Roland Octapad and synthesisers, creates a cold, lifeless pulse that perfectly complements the monotone riffs anchoring the album. Throughout, atmospheric synths – reminiscent of 70s kosmische musik, 90s underground trance, and psybient – form a bridge between the grim black metal foundation and a more introspective, ambient dimension.
