"The ash burns upon your face; judgment comes to your house. Unfaithful bride, filthy whore; a blazing fire, the hills burn. Vindication of the poor; the wrath of God, blood and fire."

After an extremely strong EP release on Soundmass in 2005, the South Australian metalers are back with their first full length that is sure to please all who are within earshot! You can expect music that has moved away from the symphonic/gothic influences of their debut self titled EP to a more aggressive twin guitar black metal sound, with plenty of melodic doses of doom and death along the way. "The Whore and the Bride" is a musical dialogue between brutality and beauty, dissonance and harmony, groove and chaos, with a life affirming message that there is something beyond the darkness. In essence, this album is birthed from the depravity and idle state of Christ's bride, THE CHURCH! If you are enthralled with Virgin Black and My Silent Wake you just found your new favorite band! Yet, if you also crave the likes of Emperor, My Dying Bride, and Bathory, Synnove's newest creation from down under is a MUST! Many great things are coming from these metalers, so be prepared! "The Whore and the Bride" is a powerful injection of truth, reality, and brutality that must be beheld... or you will never know what you are missing...

"Save me from this rage. Cleanse me from this filth. Release me from this cage. Heal me from this wound."

Lyrics from "The Whore and the Bride" and "The Last Lament"
