Cisfinitum - Devotio

Review by João Silva

Cisfinitum's album Devotio is a hauntingly beautiful journey through the depths of the subconscious mind. The Russian experimental musician, Eugene Voronovsky, creates an otherworldly landscape with a blend of ambient and drone sounds that evoke a sense of mystery and introspection.

The album opens with "Introitus," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album with its eerie and ethereal sounds. "Lacrimosa" is a standout track with its hypnotic rhythms and haunting vocals. The album's title track "Devotio" is a slow-building piece that gradually intensifies with its use of layered melodies and dissonant chords.

The album's final track, "Sanctus," is a beautiful and melancholic piece that leaves the listener with a sense of longing and introspection. Throughout the album, Voronovsky's use of electronic and acoustic instruments creates a unique sonic landscape that is both otherworldly and deeply human.

Summary by João Silva

Devotio is a stunning piece of work that showcases Cisfinitum's ability to create a captivating and immersive musical experience. It is an album that demands repeated listens and reveals new layers of depth with each listen.
