SETHERIAL Issue Ekpyrosis Album Update
July 29, 2009, 15 years ago
Swedish black metallers SETHERIAL check in with the following update on their new album, Ekpyrosis, due out through Regain Records in 2010:
"We have now recorded six drum tracks and this time we decided to go for a fully acoustic drum sound using no triggers or other modules.This week we will continue with the drums and also continue with the guitars and vocals.
We are aiming for a much more organic production with this album since it fits the overall concept and the pre-productions we’ve done sound extremely promising.
The lyrical theme of Ekpyrosis is about a metaphoric connection to the unavoidable conflict of the universe, through the satanic angle and perspective.
The Ekpyrotic Universe draws its name from the ancient Greek word ekpyrosis, meaning "conflagration" (disastrous fire or conflict). According to an ancient cosmological model with this name, the universe was created in a sudden burst of fire.
A tribute to the complete obliteration spiral of all particles that is ever created where the allseeing/alldestroying eye of Satans singularity is represented by the destructive forces and dark energy of this vast, unknown universe.
We are currently also working with different ideas for layout and we will present it to the public as soon as we has made a decision of which artwork to use.
Some of the song titles on the album: 'Seven Are They', 'Thoughts Of Life They Wither', 'The Devouring Eye', 'Firestorms Over Haar-Megiddo', 'The Neural Cage Of Selfinfliction', 'Subsequent Emissions From A Frozen Galaxy'.
More news and short samples of the album will come soon."
