Jan Roger Pettersen An oldschool industrial gem that has a little bit of everything. Really like the overall atmosphere of this album. Favorite track: As He Scourged the Earth - wierd mix.

corvischristi Monuments of a Rubicund Age is a mix of noise, gothic, industrial and ambient sounds topped with a avant garde sauce: comparable to old Raison d'Etre (how could it be otherwise....Peter Andersson was involved), but also hints of past projects such as Svasti-Ayanam.
It is a short, but varied album. Favorite track: Elwes in Sheeting Wind.

about

A strange project that for a moment united Peter Andersson (raison d'etre) and Johanna Rosenqvist (ex-Institut, Koeff) in the distant 1992. Cataclyst's music combines the melancholic beauty of early raison d'etre and Necrophorus, harsh industrial rhythms of Institut and tribal-elements of another´undeservingly forgotten project of Peter - Svasti-Ayanam... What differs this product from other works of Swedish industrial scene masters is the atmosphere of remote fairy worlds in which you smoothly sink into while listening to ‘Monuments of a Rubicund Age’. Peter and Johanna have woven an infinite labyrinth of mirages, walking through which will be a pleasant surprise for both the fans of ambient / experimental / industrial and more conservative gothic lovers. The first edition of the album was published by Peter's own label Yantra Atmospheres in 1999 and was limited to 100 copies. This reissue has been made by joint efforts of the labels Tantric Harmonies and Zhelezobeton, it contains a shorter version of the album's last piece + bonus-track. Original photographs are made by Pavel Bourchenko.
