Nixil announce debut album ‘All Knots Untied’

NIXIL have announced their debut album!

Titled All Knots Untied, the upcoming album from the Maryland-based black metal band, featuring past/current members of SPECTRAL TOMBS, TSEPESCH, DAGGER MOON, and CORPSE LIGHT, is their debut full-length effort and is scheduled to be released in March this year.

Recorded and mixed by J. Robbins [CLUTCH, THE SWORD, GOVERNMENT ISSUE] and mastered by James Plotkin [SUNN 0))), THOU, ELECTRIC WIZARD], the upcoming debut album intends to be a manifestation of chaos, rage, strength, and despair. “Our aim is to strip away the illusions and limitations of existence through an honest and sincere appeal to the art, magick, and potential of black metal.” While the lyrical subject matter is not directly political, given the current political climate, both in the world at large and within underground metal, NIXIL takes a firm and unwavering stance against fascism in all its permutations.

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for the first song lifted from the upcoming album; Deaths Of Our Own Design. The new music video was first premiered via New Noise Magazine.

Speaking about the new song, the band says, “Deaths Of Our Own Design is a treatise on the necessity of continuous self-sacrifice of the mundane ego. If one is to advance upon the spiritual path of the undoing of ‘All,’ one must be ever ready to seek out and slay the perceived ‘I,’ which is being tenaciously reborn day by day, moment by moment. The video is a moving sigil and descriptive of this gnosis, seeking to inspire those with the eyes to see to draw the knife across the throat of self until there is indeed nothing left to kill…”
