  1. The Magus – Daemonosophia Review By Holdeneye

    The Magus is the eponymous band of The Magus himself. At times known also as ‘Morbid,’ ‘Magus Wampyr Daoloth,’ or even ‘George,’ the entity known as ‘The Magus’ is somewhat of a fixture in the history of Greek black metal. He contributed mightily to the scene by performing on the first two Rotting Christ full-lengths, founding both Necromantia and Thou Art Lord, and owning and producing at Storm Studio in Athens, the recording location for many of Hellenic black/death metal’s seminal records. In 2021, it was announced that Necromantia had “now descended into the Abyss” following the death of its co-founder, Baron Blood. Shortly after releasing that band’s swan song, The Magus announced the birth of The Magus as a vessel to express his Luciferian worldview. Performing vocals, bass, and keyboards, the titular tyrant conscripted Necromantia drummer Maelstrom and Soulskinner guitarist El to carry out this vision, releasing…*checks notes*…Βυσσοδομώντας, the band’s ambitiously varied and theatrical debut, on Halloween of 2023. And now, The Magus has returned with follow-up Daemonosophia, promising to conjure “a more aggressive and dynamic sound.”

    That promise seems to have been delivered, as Daemonosophia arrives with nary a 9-minute track to be found. The two advance singles land as relatively straightforward black metal tunes but still manage to maintain The Magus’ penchant for horrific theatricality. I was tempted to embed first proper track “Psuedoprophetae,” an absolutely blistering assault that appears on the heels of a version of the Lord’s Prayer that’s a bit different than the one I was taught in Sunday school, but I’ve opted for “Magia Obscura” instead. The latter demonstrates more of the diversity found across Daemonosophia, its snarl augmented by a clean intro and majestic heavy metal guitar leads.

    Daemonosophia by THE MAGUS

    But don’t let those two tracks trick you into thinking that Daemonosophia is just another melodic black metal album. The variety on offer within these compositions and their 47 minutes is astounding. The title track made me realize what Iced Earth in their prime might have sounded like if they were a black metal band, “Amelia” is a hauntingly beautiful tribute to the dramatic devilry of King Diamond, and “The Era of Lucifer Rising” sees The Magus reworking a tremolo-laden black metal church-burner from Thou Art Lord’s 1994 debut record into a melodic monstrosity of esoteric might. But perhaps the greatest surprise is album closer, “La Llorona Negra,” an outstanding cover of a classic Latin American folk song. Organ, harpsichord, and piano introduce the song and its first, female, vocalist, and for a moment, it doesn’t sound all that different than the version you heard on the Coco soundtrack. That is, until your hear La Llorona herself screaming in anguish behind the beautiful singing, and before the song evolves into a metal juggernaut with The Magus on the mic near the halfway point.

    There is very little for me to complain about on Daemonosophia. Its runtime feels vastly shorter than it is, and its compositional flow has made it nearly impossible not repeat over and over again. The Magus demonstrates an incredible gift for songwriting, Maelstrom’s drumming is a tympanic tempest that lives up to his name, and while El might play for Soulskinner, he should probably be called ‘Facemelter,’ as his guitar playing has made it look like I touched the Ark of the Covenant. My one critique would be that the production feels a bit heavy on the low-end tones, and this was initially a barrier to me feeling Daemonosophia’s full impact. The album is saturated with hidden touches that demand to be heard, and I had to minorly tweak my EQ settings to fully excavate them. At the end of the day, this is a small price to pay for an album that has delivered me multiple Song o’ the Year contenders in “The Era of Lucifer Rising,” “Amelia,” and “La Llorona Negra.”

    In interviews, I’ve seen The Magus boldly claim to make “extraordinary music for extraordinary people.” I’d say he’s half right. I’m just an ordinary dude, but Daemonosophia’s extraordinary music has spoken to me nonetheless. The last year or so has been a bit rough for me physically, and I’m having to face the fact that I can no longer live life the way my pre-40s self could. So when “The Era of Lucifer Rising” closes with (what I believe to be) ‘Above hatred and madness/Beyond weakness and pain/I raise the veil and break the chains/My reign has just begun’, followed by a pair of powerful screams, I can’t help but feel empowered to handle whatever challenges this new era brings me.

  6. I wonder if I could get #TheMagus (The Hex?) to work for it? I've also thought about a re-skin of #PrincessWithACursedSword . Perhaps I'd need something built for multi-session play. Potentially, with some co-op coordination, #TheWizardsGrimoire might be good for stream play. I could also just do something PBTA + Mythic. Got any suggestions for a Space Wizard solo #TTRPG?

  11. @ice yeah, for sure. I started doing solo RPGs (specifically #theMagus. And #ThousandYearOldVampire) as a way to get my fix when I was bedridden for a few weeks, it just so happens that it makes a nice substitute for running "actual" and rpgs!

    It's also nice to add flair to my existing "sandbox" settings. My players have met a couple NPCs that were "suspiciously well-formed".

  16. @wholeenchilada @zozo Solo games are great for giving you something to react to narratively and inspiring you to spend outwards from them. There are a ton of journaling games out there which are very specifically about that sort of thing but I admit I'm fond of games like Ironsworn (technically Starforged - ironswornrpg.com/product-irons ) which have a little more mechanical underpinning but whose mechanics in turn introduce complications and provide you some sort of inspiration for deciding what those complications are.

    That on the table, you can never go wrong with Thousand-year-old Vampire (thousandyearoldvampire.com/) or The Magus (momatoes.itch.io/the-magus) for that journaling experience.

There are a ton of journaling games out there which are very specifically about that sort of thing but I admit I'm fond of games like Ironsworn (technically Starforged - ironswornrpg.com/product-irons ) which have a little more mechanical underpinning but whose mechanics in turn introduce complications and provide you some sort of inspiration for deciding what those complications are.

    That on the table, you can never go wrong with Thousand-year-old Vampire (thousandyearoldvampire.com/) or The Magus (momatoes.itch.io/the-magus) for that journaling experience.

  26. Decided to index cardify my #TheMagus character. I started this playthrough back in November, and just haven't had time to get back to it. Found the notes today and decided to pick it back up, alongside my cairn solo run.

    Meet Torviel. He's a stereotype, but he's mine.

  36. We've done vampires, necromancers – how about a little diabolism? It's 2051, our name is Jacob Hindsmith, and we are an armorer for the Royal Army – or we used to be. Now we make demon-infested gear for the highest bidder.

    Today's game: The Magus, a solo journaling game with a built-in countdown.
