On their third album, Finnish Dieux Des Cimetières continue to explore the territory of the martial post-industrial underground. Achingly melancholic melodies, sweeping strings, atmospheric orchestrations, martial percussion and pulsating synths combine to create an intricate album of esoteric neoclassical and martial industrial.

Influenced by authors such as Giuliano Kremmerz, Oswald Spengler, H.P. Blavatsky and Mircea Eliade, Säkeitä esoteerisesta Euroopasta (Verses on Esoteric Europa) looks at the precarious present and uncertain immediate future of Europa, seeing the signs of decay and corruption with an unflinching eye - but also the path to a new existence and a new Europa. It sees beyond the temporal a vision of Europa eternal, a Tradition capable of surviving the night at the end of the cycle of ages.

Säkeitä esoteerisesta Euroopasta builds upon the foundations laid by the two first albums, both expanding and deepening the concept. Lyrically, it sees Dieux Des Cimetières ascend to an entirely new, metaphysical and spiritual mode of expression. Musically, the orchestrations are more detailed, the vocals more powerful, and the compositions have a new, atmospheric depth to them. In a nutshell, this is certainly the most complex and thematically potent Dieux Des Cimetières album to date.
