Strigoi announce new album ‘Viscera’

July 22, 2022 James Weaver

STRIGOI have announced a new album!

Titled Viscera, the upcoming album from the death/doom band is the follow-up to 2019’s Abandon All Faith, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via Season Of Mist.

“It’s the second album and we’re pushing those limits,” says bassist Chris Casket. “The longer songs are longer; the shorter songs are shorter. It’s fully realising the concept. When we did the first album, there were certain expectations as we were coming from VALLENFYRE. I felt that it was a really good transition from one to the other. But I feel that with this record, it’s more of a fully fleshed out concept. It’s pushing the light and shade further out.”

“The first album was us giving it its own identity separate from VALLENFYRE, even though it’s kind of an obvious continuation, in a way,” adds vocalist/guitarist Greg Mackintosh. “But with Viscera, it’s a combination of pushing the envelope a little bit, making it a bit less raw. Because, we had done that to the ninth degree with VALLENFYRE. I’d also say there’s a bit of sound design in there, too, to make it very creepy and, yes, unsettling, sound wise.”
