Black metal MYSTHICON returns, single from new album out now!

MYSTHICON is a band founded in 2015 by former Lux Occulta guitarist G’Ames, who invited musicians from the bands VaderBatushkaHateKalt Vindur and other musicians such as Tomasz Gilewski and guest Jerzy “U.Reck” Głód (Lux Occuta) to collaborate on the recording of their first album.

In September 2020, the debut album “Silva – Oculis – Corvi” was released on cassette, CD and vinyl, and right now, after 5 years of silence band is back with new release! 

In 2023, G’Ames, together with the guitarist from the old line-up Szymon Hadała, began working on material for the second album of the Dukla band. The new music combines many elements from different metal subgenres, and in terms of atmosphere, refers to the roots and origin of the musicians, taking into account the unique surroundings of the Dukla forest areas as well as the new band members coming from the Low Beskids and Bieszczady Mountains.

This is how a new album was created, entitled “Bieśń” (i.e. a collection of stories, songs and legends from the Dukla region and its surroundings).

G’Ames comments new album “Bieśń“: “The album contains 6 tracks. It is a fusion of classic black metal with elements of progressive music and doom metal. In terms of sound, it is a combination of a traditional approach to black metal while maintaining a classic style and a modern look at music production. The album ends with a cover of “Creation” from the first demo of the legendary Lux Occulta performed in a completely new arrangement. The album features several guests playing unusual instruments for black metal, namely the hurdy-gurdy and the double bass, which fuel the phenomenal atmosphere of the entire release.

Music for album “Bieśń” was mixed and mastered by Adrian Mięsowicz at Tribe Five Studio (Karpathian RelictKSU). Cover artwork was done by Michał “Xaay” Loranc (God DethronedKamelotKarl SandersNileTurbo). The photo session was done by Tomasz Gilewski and Łukasz Zajdel, while the logo was designed by Primeval Era Rising (GravelandVader). The album features several guests: Jacek Głód (acoustic guitar), Marcin Chatys (double bass) and Wojciech Miller (hurdy-gurdy). Release date is set up on September 23, 2025 and will be released on digital format (pre-save), CD (pre-order) and at a later date on vinyl.
