about

'Berserk', the 2nd full-length album marks a new era in Bouq's history, where the new sound of the band is introduced, leaving behind the groovy death metal style heard on the 1st album. 'Berserk' is a unique experience of ancient spirited dark/black metal with an avant-garde spirit, enriched with tribal, barbaric, & warrior-like atmospheres. It is but the first part of an epic & diverse peregrination 'Bouq' is taking - after 'Berserk', the focus will be set on the colossal ancient civilizations of the Near East. It is important to note that 'Bouq' was previously known as 'Phex' between 2001-2007.

this is some damn fine atmospheric black metal. there are harsh vocals and occasional blastbeats, but the overall vibe is more meditative than aggressive. i wish there was more experimentation with traditional Ethiopian music and instrumentation, but overall the album is very impressive and i'm excited to see what they do next. vacant planet

Литоургиiа réussit l'impensable : faire entrer le black metal dans l'église orthodoxe. S'il y a une dimension dramaturgique (indissociable de tout office religieux), Литоургиiа reste profond, solennel et touche le sublime. Après la sortie de cet album a lieu un Grand Schisme et un larcin : Христофор se fait dépouiller de son propre groupe par Барфоломей et Мартин ; tout ce qui reste ici provient de ces deux hérétiques.
