AKHLYS - Supplication LP (SMOKE)

Driven by his 'personal daemon', Naas Alcameth (NIGHTBRINGER, BESTIA ARCANA, AORATOS) initiated AKHLYS in 2009 as a solo endeavour amid an ongoing fascination with ritualistic Dark Ambient music, and in tribute to the ancient Greek goddess of 'death-mist', daughter of chaos and bringer of misery from which the project takes its name.

Originally released 2009 on limited CD-R and last reissued in 2019, debut album "Supplication" is a tense and disturbing work of Horror Ambient. A trance-inducing, highly personal melding of spiritual and mythic nightmare via haunting synth, ominous sound design, ghostly vocalisations and percussive solemnity.

Now subject to a 2025 DMP CD/vinyl reissue - which includes reworked art by Chthonia – "Supplication" is crucial to the modern AKHLYS sound, its tortured dreamworld underpinning the occult Black Metal psychosis of subsequent records from the now fully-fledged band: 2015 modern classic "The Dreaming I", 2020's unstoppable "Melinoë" and latest oneiric masterpiece, 2024's "House of the Black Geminus".
