MARE COGNITUM Album To Be Released Tomorrow

The one man black metal project of Jacob Buczarski will see its debut on August 29. MARE COGNITUM will release 'The Sea Which Has Become Known,' a haunting and depressive album via Severed Limb Records. Taking from old school black metal bands like Darkthrone and Immortal, Jacob adds a modern progressive twist to the chilling soundscapes.

Buczarski recently gave Noisecreep some background on the track 'A Vain Lament':

"My lyrics are always written last after the song is in its final form. I simply listen to the finished track a few times and see what my imagination produces, usually a story or a character. I use this image to inspire lyrics, and often times I read over the final product and realize it does not seem to illustrate what I originally envisioned or that it came out much more vague.

"In the situation of 'A Vain Lament,' the lyrics involve one person's journey into a hypothetical afterlife where he is forced to finally stop to see the beauty of existence he had missed his entire life. I wrote this while particularly dismayed at the effect that things like constant advertising and commercialization have on the human mind, especially city dwellers like myself."
