about

*** BUY CD at NATURALWORLD (dot) BIGCARTEL (dot) COM ***

Melbourne based musician S. Callinan presents his first solo musical venture, Sylvan Awe, a significantly robust foray into the realm of Black Metal with its first release, the highly rewarding, ‘Offering’.

‘Offering’ is a deconstructive exploration of Man’s negative impact on the earth and the ceaseless desire for greed and destruction. It is an awakening process to the wonder and beauty stil left within the natural world and, a calling to the higher self and the internal struggles faced in the development of one’s identity.

Through the exploration of indigenous European, Celtic and Australian cultures and landscapes, and the contrast of those homelands, Sylvan Awe grants the listener a strikingly passionate and honest musical journey through the ups and downs of connecting to that profound sense of self, buried deep within.

At times triumphant and heroic, at others despairing and nostalgic, ‘Offering’ is truly an album that connects to the spirit of land and of culture, through the muse of furiously beautiful Black Metal.

Natural World could not be prouder to present this album to the world. Not only do we think it is a vividly strong outing in a musical and thematic sense, this project belongs to a close friend and musical peer and being involved is a privilege we cherish immensely.

Available as an edition of 93.

Packaged in a 100% recycled boxboard digi-sleeve with 8-page booklet.

Artwork and photography by the artist and his kin.

November 1st is the Gaelic celebration of Beltane, heralding the beginning of Summer, the time of plenty, in the Southern hemisphere.

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrming

supported by 14 fans who also own “Offering”

Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long! Lukas Kaufmann

Exercises in futility
by Mgła

supported by 11 fans who also own “Offering”

Mikolaj is a real multi-talent in bass as well as guitar as well as vocals and "Darkside" Maciej's drumming is a well-calibrated 100th-of-seconds-clockwork. Not for nothing is Mgla considered as a standard for a lot of other blacker-than-black metal bands. I hope to see this band live once..... grote_smurf

Devoid of Light
by UADA

supported by 11 fans who also own “Offering”

Very late to the party, but for several years I've found melodic black metal all too similar and all albums sounding like Dissection, etc... HOWEVER, not only I am back into it but UADA is still a layer of complexity above the main baseline and this is an old album worth having, that's a basic milestone in UADA's discography and I felt it needed to be part of my BC collection. sachavonkarl74

"La mort n'existe ni pour les vivants ni pour les morts" écrivait Épicure et ça reste toujours vrai : personne ne peut en faire l'expérience — sauf NONE, formation américaine qui en a fait son leitmotiv. Les membres du groupe sont inconnus et son premier album n'a pas de nom ; même le paysage sur la pochette est vaporeux. Si le DSBM est déjà d'une tristesse funèbre qui serre le cœur, les passages atmosphériques donnent à entendre les âmes en peine de l'autre côté du voile. Un début magistral... Jordan Vauvert
