We’re enormously proud to present you our new album Kob’, which is finally ready to step out into this world in its full glory. Clad in a black robe, it’s prepared to reveal itself in the image of the many-faced and majestic Death, which inevitably leads us along an invisible thread, by the whisper of a prophetic divination spell called Kob’.
Conceptually, album Kob’ is Katabasis, which depicts the humanity’s gradual descent into the abyss, by total self-annihilation via various multi-level transitions happening through the events of our time. Every problem of humanity is indicated in the album in order of its inevitable occurrence.
The immersion takes place in 6 stages (6 album tracks), each of them tells us about the events of today step by step, revealing their dark essence by means of musical and lyrical accompaniment. The 6 stages are framed in 2 utterances, which are the starting and the final point of the descent into the abyss.
Close your eyes. Led by the Universal Darkness that has risen from the grave, taste the flesh of a blatant bloody reality. Drink the tears of Mother Earth’s sufferings. Take your filthy skin off your innocent face, in order to be cleansed from the suffering received during the dark power of epidemics and wars which were created by your “pure”, “gentle” hands.
For you are a human and the world hasn’t seen anything more terrible than you….
