ANZV - KUR - Cassette

The Portuguese music scene has delivered many fine moments through the years. Porto, the undefeated city, has never surrendered to foreign powers. Porto is also the home of ANZV, Edged Circle Productions excellent new signing. Creating their own version of black metal, otherworldly and different, yet traditional. They don´t differ that much from the essence of Porto´s legacy. They to refuse to give in to the mental void making invasion of the modern world and spirit. Portugal has a very dark musical side and combining this with the Sumerian underworld causes extra creepy, hostile and mysterious soundscapes to take place.

The band is not newcomers, but they are bringer of new impulses. Challenging the spiritual possibilities of seeing beyond the void and into the nothingness of nothing. Opening your ears and hearts to the underworld of nihilism and despair.
Taking their name from the Mesopotamian monster figure Anzû. Described as a divine storm bird who could breathe fire and water or in some descriptions as a lion-headed eagle. Either also as the personification of the southern wind and the thunder clouds.
