Foreshadowed as an album of "heavily textured black metal", "Mnemosyne" offers nine new songs, recorded, mixed and mastered by guitarist/bassist Achilleas C. (Varathron, Katavasia) at Suncord Audiolab in Ioannina, Greece. The painting that adorns the cover was created by Ben Howe. Ra.design prepared the layout.
Apart from mastermind Achilleas C, the line-up comprises drummer Haris (Varathron), vocalist Astrous (Katavasia) and saxophonist Orestis Zyrinis. Clean vocals on "Synastry of Heartbeats", "Trauma Cultura" and "Mantledeath" were guest performed by Frédéric Gervais (Orakle / Cor Serpentii).
The name AENAON means "the Eternal" in Greek. The band's history dates back to 2006 and encompasses (on top of several smaller releases) three studio albums: "Cendres et Sang" (2011), "Extance" (2014) and "Hypnosophy" (2016).
