The complete stream of Beswærilsin, ARCKANUM’s tenth album, is available on Darkness Shall Rise Productions’ official YouTube channel. The Swedish black metal act shared the album ahead of its announced October 31 international release through the label.

The eleven-track release brings together music, lyrics, sound and visual form as interconnected elements of Shamaatae’s Thursatru Workings. The announcement presents ARCKANUM as an extension of his Thursian spiritual practice, with composition intended to evoke particular inner states, esoteric ideas and atmospheres.

That approach also informs the previously revealed video track, “Mz Fianda Raþi – (Mz Fianda Rathi).” Its title is given as “Worthy of Opposition.” The announcement describes fast black metal built around aggressive riffs and dynamic shifts, with themes of wolfish transformation, Ginnic awakening and anti-cosmic rebirth. Its spiritual framework invokes Fenrir’s rage, cunning and pathfinding power on a course toward Ragnarök.

Across Beswærilsin, the lyrics are written in Old Swedish, or fornsvenska. They draw on Old Norse and Swedish poetic traditions and incorporate elements of Swedish svartkonst. Within the album’s stated ritual purpose, the texts function as mythic charms and narrative incantations invoking the Thursian current.

The source places this material within ARCKANUM’s longstanding adherence to the Left-Hand Path: the outsider’s position, described through the term vargar, beyond imposed order and conventional morality. Resistance, questioning and individual will remain central to Shamaatae’s spiritual work and artistic approach.

Musically, the announcement describes a combination of ARCKANUM’s earlier foundations and Shamaatae’s current compositional methods, delivered through raw, unpolished production. Its contrasting atmospheres are framed through the cold of Niflheimr and the fire of Múspellsheimr.
