NEWS: Morbonoct expose this mortal coil?

Masterminded by multi instrumentalist Alexander Medvedev, a new album from Progressive Black Metal outfit Morbonoct is set for 19th February. Joined by new vocalist David Welnicki, “The Highest Purpose” is said to offer a dense atmospheric canvas with space themes with “Mortal Shell” the first burnt offering…

Alexander Medvedev comments: “The idea of the album is to find a balance between light and dark sound. Since initially the main theme was space and everything connected with it, it was decided to touch not only the dark sides of this phenomenon. This time it was decided not to use any progressive elements. The result was a more spatial sound, with a massive background of otherworldly sounds. Otherwise on the new album I used a different approach only when recording synthesizers. They were composed and recorded exclusively on trips to nature, to the shores of the Baltic.”
