about

We present a large authorized edition of the works of the unique project Ierophania, which stood at the forefront of the "revival" of Russian noise music at the beginning of the 21st century.

Ierophania has never been genre-oriented, constantly changing the background from album to album, but has always remained true to its once-postulated "ritual anti-art" manifesto. Ierophania is a refusal to create aesthetic constructions, but a ritual, as an act of communication between a person and the highest level of reality – the God. This is the extraction of your hidden God, the very image and likeness.

The pinnacle of the project's creativity, preceding the monumental joint work "Enscort of Endless Summer", the "Ritual Works For Destruction" dilogy. The essence of the once-chosen concept of ritual anti-art, conceptually divided into two parts, which exactly characterize the two sides of the same coin of the deepest human nature: war and sex.

The antagonist of the first part of the dilogy, consisting of twenty-eight short compositions. Percussion and musique concrète are intertwined with waves of soft power electronics and a sense of the absolute hopelessness of a person thrown into the womb of war. And even if he survives tomorrow, no one will undertake to say whether this is definitely the best outcome.
