"Elemental Live Forms MMV - Initiation" is a recording of the first public Halo Manash live ritual, and also a complete, previously unreleased work in itself. The work was presented only a single time, also being the only time the four involved personae of the group performed together as one. The live ritual, recorded over a decade ago in Tampere, Finland, focuses on the boundless elemental form returning from metaphysical pilgrimage - it bridges the worlds of being and non-being.

Ash and antler, blood and bone, drum and drone, tree and metal collide to create an intense audial journey between worlds - one of re-birth, initiation, and primal thundering. Much more than a mere live recording, this seminal work is now finally released in a package as an object of power. It was handmade in the underground Aural Hypnox laboratories, featuring various guiding sigils, inserts and historical notes from the Halo Manash archives.

Ltd x 444 copies enclosed in an oversized screen-printed A5 cardboard cover, including a booklet, 4-panel xerox-insert and eight, two-sided insert cards within a stamped envelope. A work of sublime beauty!
