The re-release of French Duo Arkhon Infaustus debut EP from 1998 limited to 333 copies.
In Sperma Infernum is the beginning of it all. The Osmose records act find its debut once again assaulting the senses and insulting the masses. Combining elements of raw black metal, with touches of deathly thrash and old school metal In Sperma Infernum is the sort of debut that has everything. If the lady masturbating on the cover gives you any idea, Arkhon Infaustus are defiant in their rebelliousness. It is chaotic and merciless, a band finding their feet in terms of delivering raw unfiltered black metal that is delivered with blasts of speed, schizophrenic tempos, and lyrical abandon.
Punishing in every sense of the word ‘’Excelse Domini Inferni’’ nods to the band’s future, all fury and hellfire whilst ‘’ The Black Succubus Whores’’ delivers the lyrical content not lost in goregrind. Arkhon Infaustus are divisive in their all-out offensiveness versus deliberate intentions and authenticity ‘’In Sperma Infernum’’ is an EP that at times seems amateurish yet it delivers the black/ death hybrid And tries to out extreme itself with every track. As you Should! If you are going to be sick, twisted, and depraved you must simply go for it every time.
If Satanism, Blasphemy, Sexual Perversions, Violence, Depravity, and Drugs are not your thing then you should probably give this a miss.
If you combine it with the rawest lo-fi of black metal, you have an unholy combination that is for the darkest and vilest of hearts only.
