Morbikon — the blackened death/thrash project helmed by Phil “Landphil” Hall (Municipal Waste, Cannabis Corpse, etc.) and Mathias “Vreth” Lillmåns (Finntroll, …And Oceans) — have announced their sophomore album “Lost Within The Astral Crypts,” due out November 21st via Tankcrimes. Leading the charge is the album’s opening track, “Heavens That Burn And Eons Divided,” which is now streaming via YouTube and Spotify for you now below.

Speaking on what to expect from this upcoming release, Hall offered:

“This album feels like some of my darkest material yet. I filled these songs to the brim with atmosphere and riffs. There are moments during the album that truly feel soaked in classic ‘90s underground blasphemy.

We picked out this track to be the opener on “Lost Within The Astral Crypts‘ because it perfectly depicts the insanity within the album. We took great pleasure in making the atmosphere and riffs as dark as possible. There are so many doors open within melodic black metal that I wanted to explore. This song touches on a little of everything within the album and offers a perfect setup.”

With lyrical contributions from Quotidius, the core duo enlisted Pierce Williams (Aenigmatum, ex-Skeletal Remains) on drums, while guest solos came courtesy of Black Hibberd (Unburier). Additional guitar work was provided by Adam Gilliams (Cannabis Corpse), with Thoams Saltman layering in synth textures.
