Lifted from the band’s widely acclaimed 2014 return, ‘Planet Satan’, the debut video ‘The Ether’ is complete. In the true spirit of Mysticum do not expect the typical kind of video, but instead a dark & cosmic trip, & a powerful glimpse into the all-conquering Mysticum universe. Hail Satan!
The video was created by Miles at Crystal Spotlight and can be viewed here:
A work of intense and otherworldly black metal power injected with Mysticum's strong cosmic, satanic and psychedelic overtones, 'Planet Satan' welcomes Mysticum to the new millennium with full & unrelenting force, whilst retaining the core elements which made the Norwegians pioneering legends of industrial black metal.
Both infernal & nihilistic, as well as apocalyptic in its scope and execution, 'Planet Satan' is a new milestone for the genre in its sublime, chaotic ferocity. Primitive minor-chord riff patterns & tortured vocals mixed with the band's manic and often unconventional programmed drum beats makes this an eerily hypnotic work of the darkest order.
Tracklist:
1. LSD
2. Annihilation
3. Far
4. The Ether
5. Fist Of Satan
6. All Must End
7. Cosmic Gun
8. Dissolve To Impiety
The album was recorded & mixed at Fias Co. Studios with producer Sverre Dæhli, & mastered by Tom Kvålsvoll at Strype Audio in Oslo.
Emerging in the early 1990's, Mysticum brought to the world a completely unique brand of psychedelic discordant black metal with insane drum machine patterns & synths. They were originally (and briefly) signed to Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions label, such was his belief in the band.
