Batushka release new music video for ‘Wieczernia’

BATUSHKA have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Wieczernia, is taken from the band’s upcoming new album Hospodi which is scheduled to be released in July.

Speaking about the album, the band comments, “the whole album is a concept based on the Liturgy of Death, the prayers for the dead, and Orthodox funeral rites and dirges. It’s all about a ritual that involves the dead and the mourners. We also used a lot of old folk songs and elegies from our homeland. These are sung during the wake, around the casket, in the deceased person’s home. Nowadays only a few older people know them and still sing them accordingly in our region. We decided to cherish that tradition and I’m glad that with our album these songs and rites will survive.”

Hospodi is set for release on July 12th via Metal Blade Records.
