Benedictio: Silentium Inter Astra

By Cruciata Æterna · Symphonic Metal · From the album Cantus Exterminatus: Liturgia Mortis et Gloriae

"Benedictio" is the silence after the exterminatus. The guns have stopped, the planet is burning, and the fleet drifts away into the void. This "Silence Among the Stars" uses cold atmospheric synths and distant orchestral swells to bring the liturgy to a close, leaving the listener drifting alone in the endless, dark expanse of the 41st Millennium.
