Fallenin77 🇮🇹 These Italians masterfully present us with the fury of symphonic black metal with the orchestral grandeur of a unique sound, where fast tempos, heavy riffs, guttural vocals and harmonious choirs come together with dark atmospheres and powerful visceral brutality that expands the limits of black metal. Memorable musical experience. Incredible work! ⛧

Antifascist Black Metal Network "Voland is no doubt one of the most unique cases in the RABM underground. Their style is extremely pompous and austere at the same time, bringing to mind influences from actual music of old times, such as Russian orthodox choir music..." full review: shorturl.at/oyUX7

Assoluta autorità Non pel bene mio ma della civiltà Giuro che mai sarà Pace finché un sol nemico mio vivrà Боже, царя храни Сильный, державный Племю царей спаси от меча Morte impietosa a tutti i tiranni Ai parassiti della società Sorte gloriosa attende compagni Se agirem con severità Giunge finalmente l'ora della riscossa Quando vedremo brillare la stella rossa Cos'è la moralità Quale posto avrà nel mondo che verrà? Che valor la vita ha Se troncarne alcune più ne salverà?

Bande nere, teste di segugio Per fiutar e poi spazzare via ogni sotterfugio E se la spada sola suggella rispetto sopra ogni crimine abietto dall'alto cala Гости въехали к боярам во дворы Загуляли по боярам топоры Как с похмелья гости домой пошли Они терем этот за собой зажгли Imperator - risorta autocrazia Basileus - reclamati regalia Decaduto è l'occidente perso nell'antichità Piangi Costantino il destino della tua città Ma nel cuore della bruma si riflette il sole sulle Cupole dorate della Terza Roma E la mano di Dio s'abbatté sulle schiere del nemico Schiacciando dal più infimo dei vermi al rivale più antico Lavando infine l'onta dell'asiatico dominio Imponendo lo sterminio indelebil impronta Vera Fede il voto a preservar Guida, Signore, il primo Zar Иван Грозный Первый Царь Божиею Милостью

Есть на Волге утёс, диким мохом оброс Он с вершины до самого края И стоит сотни лет, только мохом одет Ни нужды, ни заботы не зная Из-за острова на стрежень, на простор речной волны Выплывали расписные, острогрудые челны Супротив боярства - правда! Супротив народа - нет! От себя не отрекаюсь, выбрав сам себе удел Волга, мать родная, русская река! Не видала ты подарка от донского казака! Только ветер свободный гуляет Могучий орёл свой притон там завёл и на нём свои жертвы терзает Из людей лишь один на утёсе том был Лишь один до вершины добрался И утёс человека того не забыл И с тех пор его именем звался Грешен тем, что в мире злобства был я добрый остолоп Грешен тем, что, враг холопства, сам я малость был холоп Грешен тем, что драться думал за хорошего царя Нет царей хороших, дурень! Стенька, гибнешь ты зазря! Волга, мать родная, русская река! Не видала ты подарка от донского казака! И стоит тот утёс и хранит заветные думы Степана Лишь с Волгой одной вспоминает порой Удалое житьё атамана

Suite russe 07:41
Quanto sfarzo nelle sale fuori pianto, gelo e fame danzan principesse, su tappeti d'ossa Milioni d'anime legate in servitù In processione i pope ne esaltan la virtù Della gleba vermi, sottomessi inermi Terra madre umida Di lacrime e di sangue Sii libera Figli delle terre nere Gettate via le catene Non più gioghi né galere Pronti a conquistare il pane I cani dello zar stanno fiutando il lezzo d'eversione ed utopia il vezzo intellettuale che va corrompendo gli onesti e semplici plebei È il popolo che esige sangue ch'esso lo sappia già oppure no L'avanguardia sente com'esso langue S'incarica di far giustizia Слава Слава Царю Слава Освободителю По сей день и во веки веков La corda del boia s'è fatta reliquia I martiri hanno abbandonato le icone Il gregge redento da morsa iniqua già cerca nel panico un nuovo padrone

After two EPs, one compilation and one live album, Italian epic black metal masters VOLAND are back with their new chapter, named "Voland III: Царепоклонство - Il culto degli Zar".
Musically the EP is the evolution of the sound of the band, the union of extreme metal aggression and orchestral symphony.
VOLAND has experimented further with the fusion of different elements, fast tempos and doom riffing, harsh vocals and harmonious choirs, dark atmospheres and epic openings.
The result is a varied work, firmly anchored to the metal world, yet free of expression with many influences, mirroring the progress in the sound of the band.
The lyrical theme of "Voland III: Царепоклонство - Il culto degli Zar" is centred on events of Russian history, separated in time and very different from one another, yet presenting some common features.
The Cult of the Tsars refers to the phenomenon of religious adoration surrounding the Russian emperors, to the point of sanctification in some cases. This is explained in the function of the Russian monarch, his role was not only that of protector of the empire and its people, but of the Orthodox faith as well, placing the political figure of the Tsar near the sacred sphere of religion.
The title of the album is to be understood in this sense and also with irony: the episodes selected by VOLAND talk about emperors who were loved and respected by some, but hated and opposed by others, with acts of rebellion, revolution and even regicide.
This double reading of historical phenomena has allowed the band to identify with multiple points of view, exploring atmospheres and feelings that are often opposed and very different.
