Hellfiger is an experimental noise project projecting pulsing waves of writhing wraiths and slithering sirens; the soft and harsh, the hum and clamor—are all singing voices in this lofty, other-dimensional Noise Sorcery—a comely choir caressing the chasm between this dimension and the next. Adrian Vino, who has fronted and released albums with the Black Fire League, Ange De Lumiere, and countless other music endeavors, is here again with an automatic approach to the maddening symphonic symmetry he summons from a beautiful abyss where men lose themselves, and most never dare consider its existence. The elegance here is coupled with ghastly cries that tear through reality and echo into the infinite void beyond. The alchemist here is master and slave, cherry blossom and snowflake, a whisper and harrowing howl, an angel of light…a hell figure.
