Dødheimsgard returns after 8 years with new single and a new album on the way

After a hiatus of eight years, Dødheimsgard returns with a new album titled Black Medium Current set to release on April 14 through Peaceville Records.

The band's latest single, "Abyss Perihelion Transit," is already available for streaming and comes with an accompanying video created by artist Costin Chiorenau. The track runs for more than 10 minutes and is an immersive experience.

Black Medium Current can be pre-ordered here.

Founder Vicotnik shared the following:

The whole album revolves subjectively around perception, experience, psychology, objective/subjective reality vs external pressure, tropes, taboos, the laws of motion/causality which influences one's life. The subjective perception of reality vs the objective causal effects of reality and how they are bound to interact. Epistemological dualism.

I guess mental health, or rather instead of health, let's call it mental condition is a big topic on this record. Not as in a complaining way, or as a good or bad notion, but rather a subject's study of his own psychology (en)during everything.

Like the ambiguity of Being. What is Being? Is it a meta-physical stratum of subjective emotionally fuelled notions or is Being just explaining a physical object that is, therefore being. Epistemologically I guess these lyrics dwell a lot on naïve realism vs representational realism. Cognitivism vs behaviourism, and then bringing it all to an artist context obviously. So, it is experiential renditioning, not solution driven.
