Italy's one-man Black Metal dynamo continues to tread NEW ground while blazing the path that is uniquely Vardan's !!! The 33rd full-length release "Dark And Desolated March" sees Vardan returning to a darker and less ambient sound, while incorporating an eerie, mesmeric atmosphere akin to XASTHUR, KROHM and WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM. This new offering is a chilling opus interwoven with dark, twisted guitar passages, harsh Black Metal vocals and cold, bitter keys. Vardan remains at the forefront of the modern Metal / Rock / Doom / Atmospheric scene- breaking expectations, bending boundaries, destroying the norm. Vardan has long been unrestricted by limitations in Black Metal and "Dark And Desolated March" is only a small part in the continuing vision of this most unique and prolific artist.
