»All seals have been broken« proclaims a demonic voice on the titular track of Veil The World, and that is something terrifyingly evident in the music contained therein. On Veil The World, Trepaneringsritualen veers from crepuscular ritual moods to rabid death chants reveling, even celebrating the imminent end of flesh. Veil the World - originally released in a very limited and ultra-lavish box by Kości Tapes in 2011 - marks the half-way point between the earlier, more atmospheric works of T × R × P, and the more visceral aggression of the later material.

Trepaneringsritualen explores themes of religion, magick and the hidden realms of consciousness, taking its musical cues from the old school of ritual ambient & death industrial. Rhythmic and seething at times, and oozing forward with a creeping sense of desolation at others, Trepaneringsritualen conjures forth bleak but mesmerizing visions of the end-times. T x R x P once again assert themselves as the true masters of Swedish Ritual Industrial.

Originally released in an edition of just 40 tapes in 2011, we're very proud to announce the CD reissue of "Veil The World". Remastered by Martin Bowes.

Reviews

"The album has never sounded better. Of course, Ritualistic death industrial does have a very niche genre, but if there would be any one musician that could get you into the sound and atmosphere, it would be this darkened Swede. Tape distortion, subliminal messages, and an overall sense of despair will take over your senses as you make your way through this album. The title track is perhaps the highlight of the album, so definitely feast your ears on the drumming, pulsing work found within. A good remastering ensures that any T x R x P [follower] who did not have the chance to pick up the original run of "Veil The World" will certainly do so now" (Brutal Resonance)

"9 songs directly inviting us to join a haunting sound universe animated by spooky, narrating vocals and industrial components like icy, metallic sounds and crashing passages. Some aspects of the work remind me to the early industrial pioneers, but there also is a more contemporary element revealing impressive noise manipulations... compressed, distorted screams, a somewhat trance-ritual industrial sound... a real disturbing passage... I have had an endless fascination for the obscure sound realms of Trepaneringsritualen and the re-release of this earlier work appears to be a nice gift for all lovers of extreme sonic ambiances" (Side-Line)

"Sweden's master of dark industrial meditations returns... Veil the World is yet again another grim and caustic blend of occult inspired ritual industrial and power electronics, deeply blackened to the core... a blackened cloud of gothic atmospherics, amplified metal abuse, and inhuman vocals... rhythmic beats collide with machine gun guitar-like blasts... doomy instrumental interludes made up of amplified metal musings and foreboding backdrops... a funeral march, mixing percussive beats, electro acoustic manipulations and samples.. Every Piece offers something a little different, while still retaining the overall grim mood that pervades the album... I find “Veil to the World” to be every bit as enthralling as the dark masterpiece Perfection & Permanence. For those wanting to acquaint themselves with modern death industrial offerings, look no further." (4/5, Musique Machine)

"In reflecting today on the music featured on ‘Veil the World’, on selected tracks it demonstrates the gradual move of TxRxP towards more structure focused realms... ‘Cherem’ opens ‘Veil the World’ as a ominous ceremonial soundscape which paves the way for the title track, and when it comes roaring from the speakers it is in the guise of pounding tribal militancy, resplendent with the now trademark croaked vocalisations... droning beat and vocals sitting amongst swirling layered noise... focused rhythmically swaying offering... tensile death industrial soundscapes... disembodied vocalisations... a worthy [addition] to TxRxP’s discography" (Noise Receptor)

"Trepaneringsritualen went deep in this album... Religion, death, pain, magic, occultism and suffering are the topics that this project covers and its sounds awaken the darkest parts of conciousness. Every composition is remarkable: «Cherem», the song that opens up the album, sounds apocalyptic, and shows us, as an introduction, the shadows and darkness that surround every composition by this artist. “Veil the World”, the song that gives name to the album in a brilliant and sensationalist composition; its post-industrial rythm makes it, without any doubt, in one of the best songs of the album. “Lightbringer”, with guttural voices, pushes us to a more perverse side. “Akeldama” and its industrial sounds, where it is created an atmosphere where Thomas’ voice pushes us for good to hell of emotions, to pain and suffering... T × R × P’s world is overwhelming, dark, evil, industrial and very suggestive... an essential reference in the Death Industrial scene" (La Letra Capital)

"Thomas Martin Ekelund nos invita a sumergirnos en otra dimensión sonora, en otra atmósfera hierática donde el eclecticismo en la composición se apoya en las amplias bases del ritual, del dark-ambient y del death industrial, pero llevadas con talento a un trasfondo conceptual más profundo... tan inescrutable como una extensión vacía de vida y emocionalmente gélida por su trasfondo sonoro inquietantemente sublime... complejas y extremas donde la definición melódica es deconstruida para luego ser reordenada en un frágil equilibrio estructural que impresiona por su salvaje y visceral aspereza, potenciando su contundencia emocional... la desesperanza y el desasosiego influyen en el destino de aquellos a los que dominan para sacrificarlos ritualmente en la pira universal de las almas intrascendentes" (Lux Atenea)

"Non meno spietato è Thomas Martin Ekelund, altro esponente della crudele quanto vitale scuola svedese. "Veil The World" si colloca come spartiacque tra la fase iniziale, genericamente più ambient oriented, e la più recente di una più pronunciata aggressività, con Cherem e la claustrofobica Lightbringer che appartengono al primo ceppo e Veil The World che affonda i colpi con arrembante percussività noise e declamazioni, come l'assalto sconsiderato e furioso di Drunk With Blood, l'annichilente Akeldama, gli echi di pratiche da Santa Inquisizione di Avgrunden, sino di C'est Un Reve..."
