Description:
Two Centuries of Silence / دو قرن سکوت is a powerful and introspective statement from Akvan, merging atmospheric black metal with deep historical consciousness and cultural memory. Inspired by centuries of silence, suppression, and lost identity, the album unfolds as a mournful chronicle of endurance and quiet resistance.
Cold, expansive riffs rise and fall with a sense of epic restraint, while traditional melodic inflections and solemn pacing evoke ancient landscapes and forgotten voices. Vocals emerge like echoes from history — distant, resolute, and heavy with sorrow. The music favors atmosphere and narrative weight over speed, allowing themes of loss, exile, and remembrance to breathe fully.
Presented on 12” black vinyl, this release emphasizes the album’s gravity and timelessness — a physical artifact befitting its reflective depth.
For fans of Saor, Drudkh, Panopticon, and atmospheric black metal rooted in history and identity, Two Centuries of Silence is an essential listen — dignified, melancholic, and profoundly moving. A record that transforms silence into memory, and memory into sound.
