  ​With their debut album “Rubidium” just weeks away from being unleashed on Exitus Stratagem Records on August 22, 2025, blackened death metal collective Visitant presents their third and final pre-release single “Briars” accompanied by a beautiful music video that visualizes the band's immersive dreamscapes. This composition serves as a powerful statement piece, showcasing the full scope of Visitant's ability to craft ritualistic soundscapes that are both aggressive and ethereal. As they put it, “such a beautiful representation of what is to come.”

  The story of a man who, after realizing he’s died, pleads that it wasn’t his time yet, and as his pleas fall on non-existent ears, he comes to discover that everyone will be forgotten in the end. “Briars” exemplifies the band's commitment to creating tasteful juxtapositions between the visceral and the beautiful. The track features the collaborative genius that has defined Visitant's approach: Taylor Tidwell's intricate guitar work, Anthony Lusk-Simone's orchestral arrangements and powerful drumming, Kilian Duarte's prominent bass lines that intensify the forward-pushing experience, and Chelsea Marrow's commanding vocal performance that channels personal experiences transformed into ghost stories.

  The single arrives as Visitant prepares for their live debut at Michigan Metal Fest on August 23rd and "In the Wake of Flame Tour" with Philadelphia’s alchemical blackened death metal force IATT (dates listed below), where they will bring their haunting world to life with what they envision as an intense live experience featuring ‘muted dingy lighting and old house vibes’ that match the atmosphere of their music.

  Visitant has created a debut album that promises to resonate with listeners for years to come. They are recommended listening for fans of Opeth, Naglfar, and Between the Buried and Me.

• TIGGUO COBAUC Unleashes New Music Video "Ascended Deliverance" ft. Guest Vocals Chelsea Marrow (Voraath, Visitant)

  May 29, 2025 Fistoffreedom 0 Comments

   

  UK-blackened doom trio Tigguo Cobauc are unleashing their latest music video "Ascended Deliverance" featuring guest vocals from Chelsea Marrow (Voraath, Visitant). The song itself is a reworked version of the album track from 2024's "Fountains of Anguish," released via Exitus Stratagem Records.

  With a focus on always giving the listener the most intense and emotional experience, no more so than on the live stage. Tigguo Cobauc is the soundtrack to your darkest desires, as they explain the concept of the song and video:

  "The track opens with the haunting pulse of a heartbeat, accompanied by the creeping distortion of industrial noise, drawing the listener into a space of tension and unease. As the first notes of the story unfold, the listener is already submerged in a melodic nightmare—a dreamscape that’s as surreal as it is sinister. The narrative follows a man, lost in his disillusionment with the world, burdened by the weight of life’s cruelty and suffering. Desperate for answers, he becomes obsessed with confronting God directly, seeking retribution for the pain he’s endured. When the conventional means of prayer, the church, and the promises of faith offer no solace, he grows increasingly frustrated and turns to darker paths.

  His search leads him to a witch, a figure said to possess the ability to commune with angels, beings who might offer the answers he seeks. The witch, aware of the risks, warns him that the power to speak with such celestial beings is not to be taken lightly; without proper guidance, the consequences could be catastrophic. But driven by desperation and a growing sense of arrogance, the man dismisses the warning. He murders the witch in cold blood, seizing the book of forbidden spells she possessed. With reckless abandon, he chants the incantation, his voice trembling with anticipation and fear.

  In that moment, an angel appears—not a being of divine grace, but one of wrath and inevitability. The angel, sensing the man’s hubris and defiance, consumes him entirely. The track climaxes with a surge of chaos and intensity as the angel's judgment is carried out. The heartbeat, which has been a steady rhythm throughout, begins to slow, fading as the man succumbs to his fate.

  The track closes with the silence that follows his death—a chilling, final echo that serves as both a literal and metaphorical end. This tale, woven into the fabric of the music, is a cautionary one—a stark reminder of the dangers of unchecked ambition and the folly of trying to command forces beyond one's understanding. It is a warning against acting without caution, against chasing something that may not be meant for you. And, above all, it underscores the truth that sometimes, when you wish for something too fervently, you may just get it—and the consequences may be far worse than you ever imagined."

  The music video for "Ascended Deliverance" can be seen and heard via its premiere on Decibel Magazine HERE.

They have evolved from these beginnings, transcending into realms infused with black metal's ethereal atmospheres, where shadows and intensity intertwine.
