NEWS: “Le Blakheth” is a history lesson from Sacred Son!

Recorded by Chris Fullard (Ulver, Sunn 0))), Boris) at Holy Mountain Studios in London and mixed by Randall Dunn (Wolves In The Throne Room, Earth) at Circular Ruin Studio in New York the new album “The Foul Deth of Engelond” from Sacred Son chronicles the 1381 Peasant’s Revolt and intends to weaver historical record with speculative inversion, recounting this fierce and tragic Great Uprising as a proto-revolutionary moment in English history that echoes loudly into our own toxic and fragmented present. It will appear on 13th May via True Cult Records with pre-orders available over at bandcamp. Directed and edited by Dane Cross, with additional photography by Matteo Bianciotto the video for “Le Blakheth” is out now.
