Hyl are a new black metal entity, brought to life to give form and shape to the creative outpourings of Rick Costantino (Schizo, Krigere Wolf etc). With infamous vocalist Shadow (Black Altar, Ofermod etc) and renowned drummer Krzysztof Klingbein (Vader, Belphegor) joining Costantino in his endeavours, Hyl’s debut album, Where Emptiness Is All, has been summoned forth from the darkness. An album of remarkable, immersive atmosphere and deeply melancholic and introspective in nature, “Where Emptiness Is All” has the power to transport listeners to desolate places of cold solitude and unforgiving contemplation.
“Where Emptiness Is All” is streaming in its entirety at the Odium Records YouTube channel – immersive yourself in the cold streams of sound here…
In the experienced hands of Dionysis Dimitrakos (Enshadowed, Burial Hordes etc) from Descent Studio in Athens and ex-Marduk man Devo Andersson (Denouncement Pyre, Ragnarok etc) at Endarker Studio, Where Emptiness Is All has been given the sound it needs to capture and enthral and Claudia Sanzà of Elysivm Artwork has brought her own magic to the album’s artwork and lyrics.
