MYSTICUM Planet Satan (Reissue 2025)

Popis:

MYSTICUM’S SECOND ALBUM, ’PLANET SATAN’; THE 2014 MILESTONE IN BLACK METAL SUPREMACY FROM THE NORWEGIAN PIONEERS. PRESENTED ON JEWEL CASE FORMAT.

Having achieved almost mythical status in black metal lore, ‘Planet Satan’ had been rumoured since the late 1990’s, following the band’s debut release, 1996’s ‘In The Streams Of Inferno’. Unifying the core trio of Herr General Cerastes, Svartravn & DrBest, ‘Planet Satan’ eventually saw release in 2014 to great acclaim.

A work of intense & otherworldly black metal injected with Mysticum’s strong cosmic, satanic & psychedelic overtones, ‘Planet Satan’ welcomed a rejuvenated Mysticum to the new millennium with unrelenting force, whilst retaining the core elements which made the Norwegians pioneering legends of industrial black metal.

Both infernal & nihilistic, as well as apocalyptic in its scope & execution, ‘Planet Satan’ became a new milestone for the genre in its sublime, chaotic ferocity. Primitive minor-chord riff patterns & tortured vocals mixed with the band’s manic & often unconventional programmed drum beats makes this an eerily hypnotic work of the darkest order.

The album was recorded & mixed at Fias Co. Studios with producer Sverre Dæhli, & mastered by Tom Kvålsvoll at Strype Audio in Oslo.

Emerging in the early 1990's, Mysticum brought to the world a completely unique brand of psychedelic discordant black metal with insane drum machine patterns & synths. They were originally (& briefly) signed to Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions label, such was his belief in the band.

Since the release of 'Planet Satan', Mysticum has been active on the festival circuit, showcasing their highly impressive & unique stageshow, as witnessed on 2018's spectacular 'Never Stop The Madness - The Roadburn Inferno'.
