The Chronicles of Khiliasmos had been out for a month now. The first wave of feedback is mixed. Some do not understand the repetitive droning atmosphere, far away from the blastbeats on our previous records. Others do understand the same repetitive droning atmosphere, full of Apocalyptic soundscapes and devastating heaviness, like a tsunami swallowing the light... Pick your language.

Goodbye show in Belgium: 2013 April 27, supported by Saille.

Echoes and Dust (UK)
"These guys give black metal a whole new meaning and therefore another post-x genre can be given to this band: post-black metal, or call it progressive black metal. Gorath creates a huge sound full of doom and atmosphere, whilst a huge amount of heavy riffing sludge seep into the mix."

Heavy Hardes (DE)
"Apokalyptisch und progressiv, plötzlich wieder groovend, dann wieder leicht verstörend. Und doch nie den roten Faden aus den Augen verlierend. So präsentieren sich die Chroniken."

Heavy Worlds (IT)
"The chronicles of Khiliasmos è un album composto da tre lunghissime suite in cui il quartetto ha trovato la quadratura perfetta con cui bilanciare tutte le loro caratteristiche e le numerose influenze per andare a creare un suono unico, a suo modo innovativo ed assolutamente personale."

Lords of Metal (NL)
"The Chronicles of Khiliasmos' is het zesde en laatste album dat Gorath aflevert. Waar de band trots op kan zijn, is dat het nooit een slecht album heeft afgeleverd, toch elk album anders wist te klinken (en al helemaal op dit album!) en zonder slaafse navolging altijd diverse invloeden heeft weten te combineren tot een eigen geluid."

Louder than War (UK)
"The chronicles of Khiliasmos" is an outstanding release, and a fitting culmination to the legacy of Gorath that not only reminds people of their dark experimentation but hints at the potential of future projects."

Shoot me Again (FR)
"Construit d'un bloc massif, The Chronicles Of Khiliasmos dégage une atmosphère étouffante où la lourdeur est de mise. S'écoutant d'un trait, les trois parties s'articulent sur des variations multiples qui n'enlisent pas le disque. Il se conclut gisant à terre, non pas d'une agonie signifiant la défaite, mais bien fier et éreinté par un achèvement suprême, durable mais définitivement consommé."

U-Zine (FR)
"The Chronicles Of Khiliasmos a des allures de pierre tombale, pour un sixième album et en 2012, au propre comme au figuré, Gorath signe ici une conclusion déroutante mais parfaitement assumée à son œuvre, finalement peu représentative de son parcours, qu’il vous faudra impérativement découvrir dans son ensemble pour apprécier le potentiel créatif incontestable de la formation Belge."

Zware Metalen (NL)
"Gorath presenteert haar einde op het dienblad dat we van haar gewoon zijn, namelijk met datgene wat niemand verwacht. Het heeft geen zin The Chronicles of Khiliasmos naast haar voorganger te leggen, dit duizendjarig rijk of ‘chiliasme’ dat deze Belgen nalaten in het zog van hun vorige thematiek sleept je door een koude en intense stroom."

Gostei do albúm anterior. Tenho de dar umas escutas neste novo.

Este ainda não ouvi todo, mas do que me passou pelos ouvidos pareceu-me uns furos abaixo do anterior!!

[abyssum]

Estive a ouvi-lo ontem e achei-o bastante monótono em relação aos anteriores.

Take your time. It's by far the most dark and heavy album we ever released. Black metal? No. It's more sludge/doom. Absorb the repetitive drones and drift away with the ambient scapes!
