Astarium Premieres New Song "Pernicious Elixir"

We're going super underground this fine Monday morning with an exclusive premiere from a Russian solo outfit channeling that grim, old school symphonic black metal.

Astarium, composed of sole member SiN, will release new album "Drum-Ghoul" this coming June 17th, 2017 via Symbol Of Domination and More Hate Productions.

Pre-orders are available here and today we're premiering advance track "Pernicious Elixir" - check it out below.

SiN comments on this new album: "Lightning lit up the sky, covered with low clouds, the rain did not cease for a minute. I drove the horses drowning in the mud to the hill that was visible in the distance. Suddenly, a new bright flash lit up the bulk, which grew right in front of me from the darkness. It was the castle 'Drum-Ghoul!'

"The gray, dilapidated walls and ivy towers spoke of their age. On all lay the seal of despondency and desolation. The locals were afraid to approach the castle to the horror and avoided it. However, I abandoned all prejudices and, trying to escape the anger of the elements, I already knocked at the gate. Suddenly the doors opened. Then I did not even suspect that I was entering the gates of hell...

"So, meet a new armor-piercing cartridge in the cage of Astarium - an album called 'Drum-Ghoul!
This is a grim, chilling story told in 4 tracks of old school symphonic black metal. A strong influence on the musical component was rendered by Burzum's cult album 'Hvis Lyset Tar Oss,' which made the music very atmospheric - the Astarium did not sound like that! If you are wondering what is waiting for a lonely traveler to the monastery of original evil, then the Astarium 'Drum-Ghoul' must be in your player!"
