A funeral, a burial rite of passage into the unknown fallen night, the unanswered question, the abolition of the self. No longer chained by this carrion dream, we have no choice but to lay upon the ground. The roots reclaim, the vines rejoice. Bruise the head. Bruise the heel. To the oceans, the truth in tide. To the windswept, the solace of sky. To the earth below, we shall writhe in the maternal dirt and leave the mirage. For I’ve seen your death inscribed in the air drawn before a final cough, the harbinger of the decline of all order, of the divine. Dance around all the fires we light on their shrines, Dance around all the pyres we light on their thrones. Bathe in the moonlight, revel in the unknown. There is no truth. There are no bounds. There is but the earth: return to the ground.

What a BEAST of an album. When it comes to blending black metal and mathcore, these guys and Hoplites are the clear leaders of the pack. This album is sheer annihilation of everything in it's path. Pure chaos and destruction. And it is beautiful. Ryan
Trippy, hallucinogenic songs that seem to change shape before your very eyes, with cascading rivers of sound that ebb & flow. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 28, 2023

Ultime album de Serpent Column, Kathodos est une perle rare de black metal. Ce qui saute aux yeux, c'est le soin apporté à la dimension technique : Theophonos créé un ensemble d'une cohésion parfaite et utilise des jeux d'échos avec des riffs dévastateurs qui vont et reviennent de manière différente ("Kathodos"/"Anodos", première et septième pistes, etc.). Cet album est en somme un moyen de nous enfermer dans un palais des glaces sur lequel Theophonos tire à coups de boulets de canons. Insane ! Jordan Vauvert
