Daemonarch is a project whose protagonists are three current members of
the band Moonspell, exploring the darker sides of their personas to
form the essence of Daemonarch. This project was mainly born from the
compilation of some of the ritual poetry and epic tales that Fernando
Ribeiro (a/k/a Langsuyar) wrote between the ages of 14 and 16, inspired by
his deep interest, experiences and studies of the Occult and Satanic
philosophies and arts. Although his proclivities within these ritualistic
fields are not new to anyone familiar with his character and belief
system, this band does mark the first time that these emotions have been
released and unveiled to the outside world, as it extends even beyond
the depth and sincerity expressed within the earliest recorded Moonspell
material. Combined with the undeniable talent of two of the main
composers of Moonspell, whose interest and curiosity for this music never had
the chance to be fully realized, Daemonarch's music is a pure ar!
tistic project that brings back to the scene a fascinating combination
of very dark, esoteric and hermetic poetry with a heartfelt irony and
highly violent and intense musical texture. The band are dedicated to
returning black magic to where it belongs musically, teaching a valuable
lesson to all those bands that wanted to dispute ownership of the
"true" black throne but whose talent and vision could not live up to their
ambition, or whose beliefs were exaggerated for the purposes of
furthering their own musical endeavors. Daemonarch is a release from all the
violence pent up by Fernando/Langsuyar in regards to each of the scars
upon his soul inflicted by a world that condemns any sort of individual
thoughts or unique beliefs that don't conform to mass acceptance. The
result is an unpretentious spiritual project done by people with a
deep-seated tradition in dark music, played with the innermost convictions to
reflect their souls' darkest core. Look at Daemonarch as a tribut!
e to the important facets of arcane music and Occult sciences, leaving
such things as competition and arrogance to the many other bands who
are so wrapped up in declaring their own supremacy over peers that they
have been sidetracked from their original goals. Take a deep breath,
open your mind and behold the sheer power, irony, courage and intensity of
this new project we now offer you cloaked in black.
