BLACK ALTAR - First Ever Live Ritual!

BLACK ALTAR - FIRST EVER LIVE RITUAL!
[2023.10.09]

Black Metal legends BLACK ALTAR have played their first live ritual ever at Darkness over Cumbria Fest in the UK!

The band comments: "Finally, after 27 years of rejecting offers, we played the first ever gig of Black Altar at Darkness over Cumbria Fest and we killed it!

We played well and feedback from the audience was excellent. Unfortunately due to the previous band’s technical problems, the stage manager stopped our set and we couldn’t play the last 2 songs. We played 8 songs in total and the last one was Burzum "Jesus Dod" cover, people went crazy when they heard it. It was a night to remember!

To sum up, our debut was for us a big success, we had great feedback, after the gig people started storming our mech stand. Many people told us that for them it was the best performance at this festival. True or not, each next concert should be better. Finally, we have great line up and together we can conquer many territories. Thank you to the organizers and to the audience for supporting us and see you next time! Soon, we will post more photos and some videos."

Οn this sacred Yule, Odium Records proudly announces “Draconian Elitism” by Ofermod / Acherontas / BLACK ALTAR, the newly crafted split-release that will be released next year. A glorious covenant, exalted to the eyes of the Old Gods, taking spirit, flesh and bones, to seal a congregation regressing back in the victorious days of the genre, while thrusting forth to the victories to come.

The spawn of this insatiable gathering will be unleashed upon the mundane plains on 21st of June, on the blessed day of the Summer Solstice, as a digipack CD, LP, limited wooden box, digital, t-shirts and longsleeve garments, to fulfil and quench the thirsts and needs by every aspect, no less than the quality that such an offering deserves.

It shall be a very special Opus in the form of a split release, dedicated to the untold Mysteries of the Draconian Path, consisting of X new anthems of Orthodox Black Metal and lasting approximately 53 minutes. Thus, severing every tie the participants have set until forth, to form a deified monstrosity of terrors as well as an offering to the Victory of the Draconian Ways, above, beyond and astride Life and Death, a journey within theurgy and deification alike begins.

The cover artwork to enclose this Opus into mortal shell was crafted and created by the infamous Daniele Valeriani, known for his formidable work with several powerful artists and individuals of the genre.
