How can something be so frightening and yet so beautiful at the same time? This CD almost defies classification, unfortunately living in the US, it is near impossible to track these CDs down, however it is worth the effort. The CD opens with chaos which is really so controlled and yet so unpredictable. The soaring voices, the beautiful orchestration and the "demonic" voices meld together into a sound that cannot be adequately described. This music is not for everyone, it is very intelligent, very complex music that transcends all labels. If you are looking for soemhing different that can be ambient and then transform into something that will make you throw your headphones off (as I did when I first heard this band) then give this CD a chance.

One of the best things I heard. Heavy metal turned into unexpected masterpiece.

5 out of 5 stars None more black...........2001-04-24

This is the unofficial soundtrack to the Apocalypse! Neo-classic maestros Elend has created the most horridly sinister album imaginable, yet at the same time one of the most staggering beautiful... (That is, if you are a darkened spirit..) Even a Beethoven or a Berlioz in their most gloomy mood would have had difficulty in creating such a orchestrated descent into absolute darkness as "The Umbersun". The band is augmented on this CD by an actual choir of 30 sopranos, altos and basses, which gives Elend's music the last notch of orchestral grandeur, and results in an imposing, larger-than-life, organic tone, which most other so-called "Neo-classical" acts sorely miss. Lyrically the CD is depicting Lucifer's loosing struggle on "the last day", and thus "The Umbersum" brings to a close Elend's Officium Tenebrarum Trilogy that was started with "Lecon des Tenebres" and followed up by "Les Tenebres du Dehors". After the ultimate Luciferian statement that was "The Umbersun", Elend sadly called it quits... Elend were Primus Inter Pares and will be sorely missed... R.I.P. "The Umbersum" is a worthy monument to a truely genious band.

5 out of 5 stars the Luciferian odyssey.......2003-09-04

This album ends Elend's trilogy and what a great ending it is! It's mandatory to read the lyrics while listening because the music's impact is a lot more intense. I think elend has put down a symphony of unprecedented darkness and such complex instrumentation that every new listen takes a new hold on the listener and lingers long after the music's over. malicious and enchanting, this music is a most fitting soundtrack to the fall of the angel of light.
