On his third record for Bindrune Recordings sole member and multi-instrumentalist Chet W. Scott continues his meditative, introspective and ritualistic exploration of the heathen spirit through eclectic ethnic instrumentation, tribal percussion and waves of black and funeral doom metal with minimalist narrative or whispered invocative vocals. The music is highly repetitive, almost hypnotic in nature with fleeting melodies. Despite only counting one track this record is over an hour in length and the track goes through four different moods and atmospheres. "A Banishing Ritual" is an eerie experience, similar to Equimanthorn's "Second Sephira Cella". The artwork, design and lay-out is bleak and mostly based around the color black displaying the intricate relation of man, beast and spirits. This fits the record as it is harrowing and introspective and definitely not for casual music fans. For fans of Equimanthorn, (old) Mortiis, Burzum's ambient wanderings and Karl Sanders' (Nile) solo efforts.
