Kostnatění is here to usher in the warmer weather with their new record Úpal (Slovak for "heatstroke"). Equal parts black metal and hallucinogenic ambient sections, this new Kostnatění is essential listening in 2023. Úpal is out May 26 and pre-orders are available here on Bandcamp and here via Willowtip.
"Anxiety, fixations, and hallucinations can appear without material basis, setting our overactive neurons on fire," reads Kostnatění's description of the album. "To bring this vivid scene to life, Kostnatění has become both more meditative and more chaotic, introducing influences from sources as varied as African folk and noise rock into its technical black metal basis. Evoking both the searing rays of the desert sun and the melting of one's sanity, Úpal walks the fine line between burning up and burning out."
