Black Medium Current zal op 14 april het licht zien, een album dat de zesde plaat voor het Noorse Dødheimsgard wordt. Dat album zal op die dag uit gaan komen via Peaceville Records en is dus die langverwachte plaat.
Dødheimsgard kwam voor het laatst met een plaat vanuit de studio in 2015. Toen verscheel A Umbra Omega. Overigens durven deze Noren de liefhebbers wel vaker te laten wachten. Daarvoor was het namelijk 2007 dat er een album verscheen en ook de pauze daartoe was lang. Die voorganger verscheen namelijk op zijn beurt weer in 1999.
Reactie
“There is a certain amount of facticity to moods, in turn moods are conditions of thinking and ultimately solicit a variety of responses. The contradictory notions of angst and if angst is tied to free will or rather solely a deterministic human feature. If an agent is invested in being a particular thing and when the state of being is compromised, one would normally find oneself in a state of existentialist despair and confusion. Are we in perpetual despair because our identity depends on qualifiers that can crumble at any moment?”
“Yet trying to solely avoid these states of confusion and discomfort through structuring all notions of an all-encompassing rationality in order to interact with the objective world, is perhaps in part to relinquish personal freedom and the potential of growth? With this album I am trying to create moods in which this angst and confusion is prevalent, and through my experiential notions pose questions, (primarily to myself), that perhaps extends to facilitating the development of inner resources, overcoming self-deception and promoting freedom through art and creative exercise.”
Het album is al in de pre-order. Check daarvoor deze link.
