Swiss black metallers Schammasch have streamed a brand new single ‘Rays on Razors’ from their just-announced new album Hearts Of No Light, due out soon via Prosthetic Records on November 8th. Pre-order are also now live. Listen to the track and watch the visualiser curated by Schammasch and the SAROS Collective.
Schammasch mastermind C.S.R commented on the new work: “It’s been a bit over two years now since the “Hermaphrodite” record was released, and well over (adequately) three years since the release of “Triangle”, today a new chapter begins for Schammasch, one with realigned focus, that is stripped of aged skin, under a darkness that burns vividly. “Hearts Of No Light” opens a new cycle of work, spreading a different kind of rays.”
Hearts Of No Light is available now for pre-order, including exclusive limited vinyl colours and t-shirt bundles.
