Black metal titans MAYHEM are back again with “Despair,” a new track from their forthcoming album “Liturgy Of Death”. Set to be released on February 6, it’s described as the sonic form of “the collapse of being through ritualistic chants, Latin invocations, and blistering blast beats that echo like the pulse of annihilation.” “Liturgy Of Death” examines loss, fear of dying, powerlessness and the fragility of existence through a stark and unrelenting lens.
“Liturgy Of Death” is the follow-up to MAYHEM’s sixth studio album, “Daemon”, which came out in October 2019 via Century Media. A live album, “Daemonic Rites”, arrived in September 2023.
