Yurodivyj by AARSLAND

This album is the result of a crazy experiment by the writer and "one man band" AARSLAND (Drone Doom) and the DJ and producer CEKTA (Hard techno, Bochka).
Yurodivyj (rus) - (translation into English "holy fool" or "fool for Christ").
In Orthodoxy, holy fools are usually lay religious ascetics, sometimes wandering monks. Their purpose is to expose worldly values, conceal their own virtues, and incur public scorn.
It is believed that some of these wanderers had the gift of foresight.

This music has its roots in Doom Metal, but its groove, beats and atmosphere come from Industrial Techno music. This album can be recommended to all those who are looking for dance music with Doom Metal, Black metal and Dark/Hard Techno aesthetics and any other crazy music like Tänzelcore etc.
