Your sense of comfort and warmth is immediately broken by the sombre and depressing first song "Take This Sullen Timber" on the debut album from Antique. From here your emotions will be drawn in for a gradual weakening from the persisting pain. Yet, a hope burns within, this tale escapes from oblivion into the "Elysium Cascades". But for how long?

Listening to "Book One", it is difficult to classify the songs. Perhaps it shares a thematic approach to the modern stylings of Ulver, or perhaps it takes a cue from Mortiis. Drawing from the recesses of death and pit against the ambiance of dark music, Antique is, in the words of one reviewer, "unlike anything I have heard before" (Into Obscurity).

Already released in 2002 by Trostlos Records, Antique's debut album is now distributed by NovaTune and available in the online shop or in stores throughout Germany.
