SVABHAVAT - Set Release Date For Debut Album, Reveal First Track

From the American Pacific Northwest comes a brand new black metal entity named Svabhavat, and they will release on 30th of October via Eisenwald the debut album entitled Black Mirror Reflection. In lieu of this announcement, the brand-new track "Aghori, Flame of Knowledge" has been revealed.

Svabhavat is a duo and they describe their music as "ritualistic necromancy black metal", and indeed is that demi-tag apt: across the band's Black Mirror Reflection debut, one will find the refreshingly old stench of archetypal Darkthrone, Mayhem, and especially Kartharsis. No elegiac odes to the Cascadians or sun-drenched bliss masquerading as "black metal" here; Svabhavat offer nothing but cold'n'cruel intensity, violently at odds with their region's reigning paradigm.

Black Mirror Reflection brings six mini-epics in their own right, offering exceptionally linear narratives exceedingly daubed in the grim and ghoulish, the total package taut and swiftly satisfying. Intoxication through damnation, salvation through incineration... Svabhavat offer a dread path ahead. Step forward and stare into their Black Mirror Reflection. Take the first step with the brand-new track "Aghori, Flame of Knowledge", right here in the player below. Link
