I danesi SLAEGT (a.k.a. Slægt, che significa “lignaggio” / “patrimonio” in lingua danese e pronunciato /slɛɡt/) pubblicano oggi il loro nuovo album “Goddess”. Per celebrarne l’occasione la band condivide il lyric video del brano “Deceived by an Amethyst”, creato da Cloud Music Typography: https://youtu.be/a0l3uH8BOeI
Il commento della band:
“‘Deceived by an Amethyst’ è una canzone rock’n’roll metal, con testi che trattano di inganno e desiderio per le cose sbagliate, con la presa di coscienza finale che le cose devono cambiare e i legami devono essere tagliati. Il tutto avvolto nel caratteristico suono Slaegt, con un sacco di melodia come contorno.
Il giorno è arrivato! Siamo super eccitati, felici e orgogliosi di poter finalmente presentare ‘Goddess’ in tutta la sua gloria, a tutti voi!! 40 minuti di heavy metal nero potente ed emotivamente carico e unico. Fateci sapere cosa ne pensate e non dimenticate di ordinarne una copia!”
“Goddess” è stato registrato e mixato da Martin ‘Konie’ Ehrencrona (Refused, In Solitude, Viagra Boys, Tribulation) presso gli Studio Cobra e masterizzato da Magnus Lindberg (The Hellacopters, Cult of Luna, Dool) presso i Redmount Studios, entrambi a Stoccolma, Svezia. L’album mette in mostra il lavoro più elaborato e intricato di Slaegt attraverso 6 canzoni e 40 minuti di nuova musica.

1. Deceived by an Amethyst

Slaegt biography: Starting out as a one-man Black Metal project in 2011, Slaegt has grown into a four-piece and developed a signature sound of their own, combining well-known styles with influences from beyond the sphere of hard rock and heavy metal. Slaegt comment: “Amalgamation leads to the redefinition of genres. At our core, we draw from a wide range of genres, styles, and time periods and we combine them in a way that speaks to us deeply. We have many shades on our palette, both light and dark. These are, as in life, interwoven and become ever-changing constants.” With three albums and several EP’s to their name so far as well as over 150 concerts under their belt, including three European tours and appearances at major festivals like Copenhell, Roadburn, Party.San and Roskilde, Slaegt have built a strong following, achieved critical acclaim both at home and internationally, consequently ranking as most vital and exciting bands to come out of the Scandinavian Metal scene in recent years. Look out for “Goddess” to take things to a next level for Slaegt…
