Hi there!
We’d like to break the silence surrounding the new record and reveal the title, cover art and tracklist!
The album entitled “Where Silence Dwells” includes 10 tracks and represents our vision of how melodic death/doom metal might sound today.
The artwork is based on the work of the excellent Spanish photographer Paco Garzón, whose black-and-white images perfectly capture the mood and atmosphere of the album in a masterful way.
The recording process took place in different studios in St. Petersburg under the guidance of Den Lukyanov, the mixing was done by an old band’s friend Dmitry Vasiliev in Moscow and the mastering was handled by a renowned engineer Thomas Eberger at Stockholm Mastering.
The album features guest musicians:
Alexey Lexx (Zero Cold, ex- Vergeltung) – samples, Anastasia
Skvortsova (Nebulae Come Sweet) – cello, Mariya Lebedeva (Troll Bends Fir) – viola, Alexey Kurasov
(Theodor Bastard) – percussion.
The album is expected out before the end of the year. More info is going to be dropped in the next weeks. Stay tuned!
Digital album is up for pre-order on Bandcamp now

We extremely apologize for not updating the site in such a long time
Many things have happened since the last post. We parted ways with drummer Alan and guitarist Roman. Left alone, Alex and I continued recording a new album. It hasn't been easy. We have long prepared, experimented with sound, changed studios, overdubbed parts and invited session musicians. During recording the vocals, I even lost my voice and had to see a doctor. However, despite all the twists and turns, bad rock, bad weather and fucking pandemic we did it and we can confidently say that the album is ready and it sounds pretty damn cool!
We would also like to announce new band members! Let's welcome them! So: our good old friend Alex Yakovlev (ex-Misanthrope Count Merciful, ex-Truth That Kills) is on the drums, the guitar - our no less old and good friend Anton Veresov (ex-Buicide, ex-Northern Gates).

"Hostile Emptiness" has always been special for us and often appears in our setlist.
The theme of Chernobyl, shown in this video, suddenly turned out to be fit with the mood of the song, which gave it an even deeper and more tragic meaning. Looking at this footage never once leaves the state of alarm, despair, hopelessness and desolation. The place where life once was, the place which will now always be empty and hostile to people.
