NEWS: SLAEGT premier “Deceived by an Amethyst”!

One that we reviewed earlier this week, Danish Black Heavy Metal outfit SLAEGT (a.k.a. Slægt, meaning “lineage” / “heritage” in Danish language and pronounced /slɛɡt/) have released their fouth studio album “Goddess” via Century Media Records. Recorded and mixed by Martin ‘Konie’ Ehrencrona (Refused, In Solitude, Tribulation) at Studio Cobra as well as mastered by Magnus Lindberg (The Hellacopters, Cult of Luna, Dool) at Redmount Studios, both in Stockholm, Sweden in late 2021, the album comes with stunning artwork created by Dávid Glomba (Svartidaudi, Cult Of Fire, Malokarpatan) and showcases Slaegt’s most elaborated and accomplished work to date with 40 minutes of new music in six scorching cuts. To celebrate, the band have chosen to air a lyric video created by Cloud Music Typography for the album’s opening track ‘Deceived by an Amethyst‘ so if you haven’t yet had the pleasure, this is a great place to start.

The band comment: “‘Deceived by an Amethyst’ is a driving and pulsating, rock’n’roll metal song, with lyrics dealing about deception, wishing for the wrong things, but in the end realizing, that things have to change and ties have to be cut. All wrapped in the signature Slaegt sound, with loads of melody and edge. The day has come! We are super excited, happy, and proud to finally be able to present Goddess, in all its glory, to you all! 40 minutes of powerful and emotionally charged black heavy metal, done in the unique Slaegt way. We can’t wait for you to hear it, feel it and get to know it. Let us know what you think and don’t forget to order a copy! Amalgamation leads to the redefinition of genres. At our core, we draw from a wide range of genres, styles, and time periods and we combine them in a way that speaks to us deeply. We have many shades on our palette, both light and dark. These are, as in life, interwoven and become ever-changing constants”
