With influences from 70's Rock to 90's Black Metal, Captain James Fogarty has steered EWIGKEIT beyond the unfathomable depths of the UK's underground Black Metal scene, and traversed the fringes of extreme music intermittently since 1995. With its own brand of Post-Black Alternative Metal, EWIGKEIT has perplexed/astonished/dismayed listeners far and wide. "DISclose" is his ninth release, and contains seven tracks.

"1947" lead off the album...a slow and hateful grind builds with layers guitars and Black Metal vocals. The guitars build a slow melody throughout, and the clean vocals in the chorus are both solemn and chilling. "Disclosure" has a steady pulsing rhythm. Fierce Black Metal vocals in the verses are tempered with alluring cleans in the chorus, and he is not afraid to let those subtle melodies shine. The instrumental sequence following the bridge is absolutely commanding. "Oppenheimer's Lament" opens with spoken word and a steady guitar rhythm. The Black Metal vocals fall into the cadence of the rhythm. The clean vocals lament heavily, in a despondence that isn't often heard. Sad and hopeless, it's like your last chance to be absolved of sin before you burn in the pit for eternity.

"Guardians of the High Frontier" opens with a little more speed, and dual clean vocals that are held for effect. Clean vocals are used throughout, with a solemn and cold twist. It's like digging the knife in deeper in your back, and twisting it for good measure. The Black Metal vocals towards the end put a high note on this, and the spoken words return, talking about aliens. "Resonance" starts off with dual clean vocals and a depressive, melancholy sound in the guitars. It takes a severely dark turn with the onset of Black Metal vocals and some eerie programming in the background. It ends in drawn out darkness. "KRILL" opens with fuzzy bass guitar notes and some light percussion. The guitar riff comes in and marches along with the bass. From there it builds a fairly solemn and depressing piece.

"Moon Monolith" closes the album, at nearly eight minutes in length. A slow grind from guitars opens the song with notes of the melancholy, especially in the clean vocals...very solemn and depressing. But the Black Metal vocals come in with anger. A neat little instrumental passage comes into play and then the harrowing sound is back. Overall, I remember doing a review of his last album, and appreciating the diversity found on it. This one is equally as interesting. He seems to have carved out a niche in the genre that is completely his own. Within the Black Metal screams, there are harmonies, melodies, and wonderful snippets of programming that keep you on your toes. You can tell he has a wide array of influences and this is reflected in his work.
