As a teenager, GOST played in metal bands but eventually drifted toward electronic music which would later become the foundation of his powerful synthwave/retrowave sound. With its haunting atmospherics and aesthetics influenced by the blackest corners of the metal world, his music quickly garnered him a loyal following within the rock and metal communities worldwide. For the recording, mixing, and mastering of the new opus, Valediction, GOST teamed up with Jaime Gomez Arellano who worked with the likes of PARADISE LOST, SOLSTAFIR, PRIMORDIAL, MYRKUR and many more. The result is a volatile mix that ranges from synthwave/retrowave to the most raging and extreme caverns of black metal.
