“Omne Ensis Impera” introduces an additional strength to Arditi’s compositions - epic orchestral loops and thunderous percussions are granted a more prominent role, stirring the damp and suffocating ambiance that the duo have always produced so well.
"We sing the praise of war. Not for
the way it makes people die, but for the way it makes people come alive."
The highly anticipated new album by the Swedish duo is finally upon
us, under the title "Omne Ensis Impera". The sense
of determination that echoes through their music and which has brought
them to the forefront of Martial / Industrial Neo-Classical scene has
stayed untouched, evoking the sense of duty and commitment that Italy's
WWI elite storm troops, from which the name Arditi originated,
were known for.
"Omne Ensis Impera" introduces an additional strength
to Arditi's compositions - epic orchestral loops and thunderous
percussions are granted a more prominent role, stirring the damp and
suffocating ambiance that the duo have always produced so well with
their use of ominous synths, obscure speeches and mesmerizing narrations.
Similarly, shades of the Italian Futuristic movement of the early XXth
century, which served as inspiration in the early days of the project,
remain imprinted in Arditi's work - "Omne Ensis Impera"
could well be a modern interpretation of the Futurist's goal of glorifying
warfare to an artistic expression beyond its inherent violence and intrinsic
sense of heroism.
"Omne Ensis Impera" has been mastered by Kamrat Nordvargr
of Mz.412 and Toroidh, an old ally of the band. Nordvargr
has also contributed with additional arrangements on a couple of tracks,
and prepared a slightly modified track list, which will feature on the
vinyl version of the album that will follow soon, together with a limited
edition box set. The CD version is presented in a deluxe glossy Digipak,
with embossed artwork.

Originally released in a 1000 copies limited edition in 2003, this was Arditi's first full-length album, now made available again with 2 extra tracks in deluxe Digipak.
The original release of "Marching on to Victory" dates back to 2003,
with a small pressing of 1000 copies on the obscure Swedish label Svartvintras.
The legacy that one half of the project brought from his work with Puissance
was fairly evident, yet the focus on his work as Arditi was not so much
beautifuly orchestrated narrations of the apocalypse, but far grimmer depictions
of the past centuries world conflicts. Field recordings and blurry speeches were
incorporated into Arditi's compositions, adding a rather disturbing tone
to the predominant military snare-drums, obscure symphonic arrangements and hypnotic
soundscapes. The suffocating combination between martial classical arrangements
and somber atmospheres would set Arditi's debut album as one of the bleakest
releases on the Militaristic Neo-Classical movement that was starting to flourish
at the time. "Marching on to Victory" is now made available again, in
a deluxe Digipak release featuring 2 bonus tracks.
01. Determination
02. Sturm V
03. Unity Of Blood
04. Marching On To Victory
05. Bless Our Arms
06. Sun Of Predappio
07. Holy Order
08. Militant Struggle Bonus Tracks:

Tapping further into the darker tones of Militaristic Neo-Classical ambiance, Arditi present their strongest effort so far, with their ever effective use of crushing orchestrations and evocative speeches. Heavy vinyl, lim.500 copies, w/A2 poster.
Spearheaded by H. Möller and M. Björkman, Arditi's first recordings came to light in 1997, inspired by the Italian Futurist Movement of the early 20th century.
Given both members' involvement in other projects (such as Puissance or Algaion), it was not until 2002 that the first Arditi output would come to be released - the limited edition 7" EP "Unity of Blood" (Svartvintras Productions, 2002) earned the project excellent criticism which served as motivation for the preparation of a few other efforts put out during the following years, among which their debut album, "Marching On To Victory" (Svartvintras Productions, 2003), the split CD "United in Blood" (Neuropa, 2004), shared with the Swedish Toroidh, and most recently "Spirit of Sacrifice" (Blooddawn, 2005).
The project's recent alliance with Equilibrium Music resulted in the release of the daunting appetizer 7" EP, wherein Arditi presented two brand new and exclusive tracks in a limited edition of 500 copies, and paved the way for the "Standards of Triumph", a new full-length opus now available in both Digipak CD and limited edition heavy vinyl via Equilibrium Music.
Boasting the unique personality of this Swedish combo, "Standards of Triumph" taps further into the darker tones of Militaristic Neo-Classical ambiance that has become the band's trademark, resulting in their strongest effort so far - ever effective in their use of crushing orchestrations and evocative speeches, Arditi hereby drags the listener around muddy trenches, leaving aside overly pompous festive marches or alcohol fueled merry bunker songs which seem to have become the norm as of late, and casting an hypnotizing veil over the turmoil of warfare-inspired Industrial soundscapes.
Also released in Digipak CD. Both formats are also available in Boxset edition (lim. 100 copies).
