New Alkaloid Single Azagthoth!

in #music6 years ago (edited)

I wrote about this band before, and if you read it, you'd know that I love them. They returned after 3 years with this single, and they crushed it. It is a great tease to whats coming, and great announcement to a new album called Liquid Anatomy that comes on May 18th. In comparison to their last record, The Malkuth Grimoire, this is a lot weirder, and when I say that, I mean in the best possible way.

Here's what Grossman had to say:

"It's been three years since our last album came out and we're thrilled to finally show the world our newest effort. "Azagthoth", just like the title immediately reveals, thematically picks up on the Lovecraft theme that was already featured on the last album, so we decided it's a good idea to premiere this track first."

"On our new album Liquid Anatomy there will be 8 songs which drastically differ from another. The stylistic and dynamic range will be much wider than on our first album. At the same time we managed to make a cohesive record on which every song stands for its own and simultaneously adds to the whole picture. Even though "Azagthoth" is quite catchy, it's a very complex track with polyrhythmic time signatures. On the drums for example, in the chorus of the song I play a simple 4/4 with my hands while my feet and the guitars mimic a 5/8 that is going on throughout the entire track. I guess it is no surprise to anyone who heard our last album that we are using complex musical patterns. However complexity or playing techniques are not the things that matter the most in our songwriting. We just want to write good, unique and timeless songs without having to stick to any stylistic musical boundaries. Well, that said, I hope you'll find this song as good as we do. Have fun listening!"

Until then listen to the whole last album:
