Synth-Based Black Metal artist Morningstvr continues to build momentum toward his June album release with the unveiling of a new music video for the track “Dethroned”. The second single from the forthcoming album “A Fate Engraved” delves deeper into the medieval-inspired narrative that characterizes this ambitious project. Morningstvr comments on the inspiration for the single:
“Delving on themes of betrayal of those close to you and binding them into submission, ensuring they know their place, “Dethroned” was heavily inspired from the second wave of black metal, mainly from the early Darkthrone days and thus the guitars bring that sound back to the forefront whilst guided by winterous, abysmal synths.”
“Dethroned” showcases Morningstvr‘s evolution as both composer and storyteller, featuring over four minutes of atmospheric synths layered with relentless percussion and haunting vocals. The track explores themes of fallen monarchs and lost power, serving as a crucial narrative piece in the album’s overarching medieval saga. In the months since his last release “Amongst Two Towers of Novgorod” (a split EP with Incantations of Cadaver Mutilation), Sam Tchortov has refined his approach to the Synth-Based Black Metal subgenre he champions, creating music that is simultaneously abrasmal and majestic.
This release follows the successful reception of “The Last of the Northern Kingdoms” in March and continues the methodical rollout of content leading to the June 20th release of “A Fate Engraved”, which stands as the second installment in what Tchortov describes as his “Unholy Trinity” of albums. His music is recommended for fans of Xasthur, Hekseblad, and Hulder.
