Polish Black Metallers BLACK ALTAR have just released a video for ‘Deus Inversus’ over here. The song is taken from the band’s forthcoming split album with KIRKEBRANN, which will be released on June 30, 2020 via Odium Records on digipak CD and different vinyl LP formats. BLACK ALTAR founder Shadow had this to say about the track: “The song was written by the guitarist and myself. I am very happy with it both in terms of music and lyrics. On the musical side, because it is quite diverse, it has extremely fast blasts played by Lars Broddesson, as well as slow monumental fragments, a very fast and long solo played by our guitarist Thomas, Latin choirs sung by me, Alexandros from MACABRE OMEN and singer Lilly Kim. From the lyrical side, this is one of the most occult lyrics I have written. Simply put, ‘Deus Inversus’ means to me that Everything is Everything. God is also the Devil, the Original Consciousness that emerged from Chaos on the basis of adversity. That is why the Devil is God’s second face.” For all additional band information please visit www.facebook.com/blackaltar
