Schammasch - The Maldoror Chants: Old Ocean (2024)

In The Maldoror Chants: Old Ocean, Schammasch deepens their avant-garde approach by blending black metal with rich atmospheric textures inspired by the literary work Les Chants de Maldoror. The album’s dynamic is dark and meditative, featuring a mix of ethereal spoken word, somber melodies, and guttural growls, all underscored by post-metal influences that convey both elegance and doom. The band balances harsh tones with softer ambient interludes, exploring a primal connection to nature and spirituality. This release marks a distinctive evolution in Schammasch's sound, highlighting their meticulous attention to atmospheric composition and brooding intensity​
