Recently, French sludge metallers Dirge revealed all about their new album to be titled Lost Empyrean. After 4 long years in seemingly quiet solitude, the band returns with their 7th offering of hymnals to the toil of suffering and perseverance. They have also revealed the massive 7-minute title track which you can now enjoy below.




Boasting a 2 and a half year writing process and mixing/mastering credits by Raphaël Bovey/MyRoom Studio (Wilhelmina, Schammasch, Zatokrev), Lost Empyrean "serves as a soundtrack to the dual relationship between the primordial quintessence colliding with the earthly body and the illusory nature of providence upon the somber, meager trappings of existence."




Tracks:

01. Wingless Multitudes
02. Hosea 8:7
03. Algid Troy
04. The Burden Of Almost
05. Lost Empyrean
06. A Sea Of Light
07. Sarracenia

As usual, the French quartet worked with Axël Kriloff's paintings while the layout was handed to Stefan Thanneur.

The album will be released on December 14th worldwide via Debemur Morti Productions and is available now for pre-order in special edition vinyl, vinyl and CD. The digital download is up at Bandcamp.
