ALUKTA present the first spell from their upcoming debut ritual

French Doom Ritual Black Metal band Alukta is thrilled to announce that pre-orders for their highly anticipated debut album, “Merok”, are now live. The album is set for international release on May 2nd via Transcendance.
To mark the occasion, Alukta unveils the album’s first single, “Exuvia”, accompanied by an official music video. The track offers a haunting glimpse into the dark and immersive world of “Merok”.

Alukta is a Doom Ritual Black Metal band composed of Marie (Brouillard, Vertige… France) and Déhà (Slow, Wolvennest… Belgium). The band was formed in 2023, out of a mourning period mixed with a need of exploring old tribal customs. After a fully black metal experience, Marie felt like trying a more doom approach of music, and the urge of using clean vocals to express her deepest primitive feelings. The first album “Merok” was born, then recorded in Opus Magnum Studio, Brussels by the talented studio master, Déhà, who added his musical contribution and arrangements, and finally signed on Transcendance label.

The concept is inspired by the Toraja people and their quite special funeral rites, and by cults and death in general. Alukta is grief, but also relief through rituals and ancestral traditions.
