Since arriving on English shores in 2017, from their South African homeland, The Medea Project have established itself as a band with a unique identity; standing proudly astride the rifts that separate genres and subgenres and exploring the darkness that lies in the depths between. Their creativity feeds upon the shadows and they walk the borderlands, the uncertain places where nothing is ever as it seems.
They conjure songs and stories for those unsatisfied by the laws of everyday existence, those who will not be spoon-fed the bland gruel of accepted reality. And they are calling once again, beckoning you to follow them down the rough-hewn steps to the banks of Acheron, to ride the still, stygian waters...with Kharon.
The album entitled Kharon will be released on 20 June as a self-release. The date has been marked by a special launch show at London's Dingwalls 2 venue alongside My Silent Wake and The River. The Medea Project's invocations have become darker than ever before, their essence even more unfathomable. Follow, listen, watch and accept their ineffable gifts.
Recommended to fans of Celtic Frost, Tiamat, A Pale Horse Named Death and Darkthrone. You can now watch the new lyric video and listen to "Purgatory Trapped" right below. Link
