NEWS: Thantifaxath prepare for immolation with “Mind Of The Sun”!

An unholy Canadian grail of contemporary Black Metal is due out via Dark Descent Records on 2nd June in “Hive Mind Narcosis” from Thantifaxath. Previously dubbed avant-garde black metal, the trio conjure forth an expansive, discordant and mind-altering brew that’s never just black, thrash, death or doom metal psychedelia and have recorded the seven track effort entirely in house. Adorned by the Francisco Goya painting “Witches’ Flight” (1798) on license from Museo Nacional del Prado, it’s available for pre-order over at bandcamp

Just like its music, the band explain that “Hive Mind Narcosis” is a lyrical blend of two mutually conflicting ideals: “The album has two levels working in dichotomy with one another. On one level there is a strong resistance to something, and on the other, there is a total acceptance of that same thing. Beyond that, we leave it open to your interpretation.”
