about

Alkuharmonian Kantaja (Engl."One Who Carries The Original Harmony") is a fresh perspective back into the world of Avantgarde Black Metal of the days gone. An entity born in Oulu, Finland in 2020 by J.Usurper (Bass, Guitars, Vocals), complimented by the likewise Oulu native S.Redeemer (Drums) and reaching it's full potential through the Swiss based D.Harbinger (Keys).

"Shadowy Peripherals" is their ambitious debut album. It is an introspective journey deep into the depths of the human mind, the spirit, the self. A duality of ýearning and satisfaction, a deep dive into our primal beastly animal nature with glimpses into the soothing nostalgic realms of the mind, dwelling in toxic depressive darkness on a quest for something that perhaps never even existed. A playfull yet bitter play of words and sounds of human nature in constant conflict. Of disappointments carried through generations and the search for eternal understanding. From the mundane observations of this carnal reality into pondering the universal truths of existence we all might realize one day (maybe too late), that which we all carry within us - The Original Harmony.

Shadowy Peripherals is being released as a Cassette Box through Korpituli Productions and on Digipak CD through I, Voidhanger Records.

A very promising debut that was overshadowed by the follow-up soon. But it all was already here and you could hear that only good or even great things can be expected from Korpituli. mourner

Now, here we have an exceptionally solid piece of northern pagan metal!! Like early Emperor with a folkish touch, this is too brilliant and well composed to be missed. Kursma

Progressive, a little symphonic, yet still hard as nails. I love the exploration of this, especially the title track, though the Ulver cover and outro are well done too. Hayduke X
