Void hymns for madmen. Mictain, the serpent of death, tells us a story of the suicide of an emperor in their upcoming LP Tuer un Roi on December 21, 2022
Lowliness,
A young ambition’s ladder,
That what he is,
Augmented,
By which he did ascend,
So Caesar may.
Think him as a serpent’s egg
Which, hatched,
Would as his kind grow mischievous
And kill him in the shell.
I am breeding a viper for the people,
And a Phaethon for the world.
Cry havoc!
And let slip the dogs of war,
For this foul deed,
Fetid above earth,
With carrion men,
Groaning for burial.

What an impressive piece of black metal. This one-man hurricane is pure art. Sgah‘gahsowáh creates an haunting atmosphere. He puts so much soul in his music. Sælzer Bub
