The Chilean underground scene has been thriving for years with great bands of all styles of extremity. Occasvs is both unique within that scene and also a fitting encapsulation of it, combining black metal with death, heavy metal and more, while lying in wait for years as their long-in-the-works debut album was fine-tuned. Now "Nocturnal Majestic Mysteria" is to be unleashed on the world in late summer 2017.
The first streaming track from the release, "Union" is an 8 minute odyssey through all of the band's startling blend of ideas and influences. Tremelo-picked riffs intertwine around blast beats, and the vocals are growled, shrieked, and even sung in eerie, stentorian harmonies. Listen to it here:
Coming on CD and tape from Unspeakable Axe, "Nocturnal Majestic Mysteria" will be available for pre-order in July and expected to ship by the end of August.
