Hailing from France, Alkhemia reveal their latest full-length offering, “Häxen”, out today via Non Serviam Records (https://www.non-serviam-records.com).
“Häxen” is a multi-faceted album: violent yet melancholic, fast yet melodic, driven by a constant tension between rage and lucidity. A piece of occult, modern and incisive black metal that will resonate with fans of Mgła, Naglfar, Gaerea, Der Weg einer Freiheit or Sargeist, merging heavy blast beats with infuriated, melodic, and harrowing guitar riffs.
This is a philosophical journey into witchcraft and the decay of a civilization collapsing into Orwellian dystopia – a world where the ones who refuse to conform become outcasts. Through its new tracks, Alkhemia embodies the oppression of these “modern sorcerers” – marginal, dissident, unyielding – stigmatized for rejecting the norms they despise.
“Häxen” is a cry of revolt for the voluntary loners, a sonic march for the defiant and the free.
