BESTIA ARCANA – Holókauston CD (Digipak Reissue)
Unleash the ultimate, apocalyptic void. Originally summoned into existence in 2017 by Dark Descent Records and out of print for years, Holókauston stands as the absolute crowning achievement of BESTIA ARCANA. Serving as the monumental, occultist black metal outlet for visionary mastermind Naas Alcameth (the architect behind Akhlys, Aoratos, and Nightbringer), this long-lost masterpiece is finally resurrected in 2026 by Debemur Morti Productions.
Described by Alcameth himself as both a “heretical black opera forged in adverse esoteric and eschatological tradition” and “a madman’s alchemical experiment,” Holókauston is a terrifyingly dense, warped, and monumental creation. Across four colossal movements — “Hellmouth”, “Obscurator”, “Howling”, and “Iniquity” — Bestia Arcana strips away all light to construct a wall of pure, suffocating chaos. The album seamlessly blends the frantic, high-velocity blast beats of elite orthodox black metal with massive, apocalyptic horn-like synths, cavernous dark ambient drift, and Alcameth’s agonizing, multi-layered vocal shrieks. It is a stark, terrifying reminder of the labyrinthine depths Alcameth mined prior to the global triumph of Akhlys.
For this definitive 2026 reissue, the audio has been preserved in its raw, crushing intensity. Housed in a gorgeous, high-quality 6-panel digipak, the physical packaging matches the dark, ritualistic nature of the music. True to the legendary collector standards of Debemur Morti Productions, the coveted first batch of this release is pressed on a premium, highly collectible black polycarbonate CD. A mandatory acquisition for devotees of Nightbringer, Akhlys, Abigor, and the most extreme, esoteric corners of the American black metal underground.
