BLACKDEATH - Mortui Incedere Possunt (CD - Jewel Case)
Russia | Black
Detailed Description
In the wake of their previous work, Also sprach das Chaos (released by EAL Productions in 2021), Blackdeath continue to push experimental boundaries in composition. In an era when musical distinctiveness is scarce, Blackdeath offers a rare listening experience shaped by over 25 years in the black metal scene. Their journey began with Saturn Sector (1998), a raw debut rooted in the defiant tradition of black metal, yet unmistakably their own. Their latest release, Mortui incedere possunt ("Dead Can March"), showcases an expanded role for drummer Polar Maya as vocalist, along with an ambitious production by TT of Abigor. Now joined by second guitarist Der Nukleare Herjarnn, a longtime live collaborator, Blackdeath's sound hints at Voivod and the radical strains of orthodox black metal, exploring mid-tempo, ice-laden grooves. Merging familiar intensity with newfound uniqueness, Blackdeath may well have achieved their pinnacle. Thematically, they dissect reality through an anti-cosmic lens, revealing Chaos in all things.
