\ Philanthrop / is the latest creation of the Austrian Post-Metal project Ephemeral Sky.
The record boasts an engaging mix of ethereal Post-Black Metal / Blackgaze, Post-Hardcore, Slam Death Metal, Jazz, Classical Music and Folk influences. Even though there is such a multitude of influences from different genres to be found on this record, it presents nonetheless a coherent whole that guides the listener through its narrative soundscapes.
The record can be described as a concept album, though only in an abstract sense. The lyrical themes deal with ethical and philosophical arguments about human nature and war, however all that is deeply embedded in a layer of purposeful ambiguity. The listener should be able to discern their own meaning from each track and the composition as a whole.
