Blaze Of Perdition announce new album ‘Upharsin’
BLAZE OF PERDITION have announced a new album!
Titled Upharsin, the upcoming album from the Polish black metal band is the follow-up to 2020’s The Harrowing Of Hearts, and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Metal Blade Records.
Speaking about the upcoming album, the band shares, “with Upharsin, we aimed to open the wounds of humanity as a collective. The album reflects on how humans tend to gravitate towards conflict and strife. How religions and politics as well as other aspects of our everyday life are tainted and driven by our lower instincts as we willingly refuse to learn from our own history, as we choose to ignore and neglect the shadow aspect of our psychic reality, which in turn takes us further and further in the everlasting cycle of violence. It’s probably the most realistic concept we’ve taken on, with noticeably less spiritual leanings and a much more grounded approach.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, BLAZE OF PERDITION have released a new song from the upcoming album; W Kwiecie Rozłamu.
Speaking about the new song, the band says, “we wanted to begin the album with something striking and punishing, hence why there is no intro to set the mood first. However, most of our songs rarely keep the same mood for the entire duration and this one is no different. It’s probably the most varied composition on Upharsin and what starts with fury and flames, soon transcends into a somewhat sludgy, almost psychedelic abyss to shift once again into fiery blast-driven inferno. Lyrically, it talks about our struggle to keep up with the pace and temptations of our collective, destructive nature. To understand, accept and learn from it instead of suppressing it and allowing it to expand.”
