Over two years in the making, "From The Waters Of Death" is a conceptual split album that brings to life an ambitious project: To tell the Mesopotamian myth of Gilgamesh, the world's oldest epic, through music. The poem recounts the deeds of the king of Uruk, a strong and arrogant demigod who oppresses his people. To Gilgamesh the gods oppose the bestial Enkidu, a wild hero who lives among animals and that defeats the king of Uruk in battle, teaching him temperance and balance. The two become inseparable friends and embark on heroic adventures until Enkidu's death, a tragic event that drives Gilgamesh on a desperate quest for immortality, finally discovering that true immortality lies in the works and wisdom left to posterity.

Telling the story are four bands characterized by darkly epic songwriting: first of all, Dis Pater's MIDNIGHT ODYSSEY, who has repeatedly tackled concept albums with a mythological flavor; then SWORDS OF DIS, somewhat the directors of the entire work, whether for the majestic character and theatrical power of their doom-tinged black metal, or for their meticulous attention to detail in the collaborations between the participating musicians and the adherence of the lyrics to the original epic. And finally ÔROS KAÙ, black metal project of Guillaume Cazalet (NEPTUNIAN MAXIMALISM) and the Finnish deathsters SERPENT ASCENDING by Jarno Nurmi (DESECRESY, SLUGATHOR), both equally at home with metal concept albums with dark and majestic atmospheres.

Through 5 long and articulate tracks on the border between death, black and doom metal, "From The Waters Of Death" beautifully captures the essence of the Gilgamesh myth, who represents mankind's irrepressible need to understand the meaning of existence through the value of human mortality.
