Triptykon: Shatter – new video / new EP

 

TRIPTYKON, avant-garde extreme metal proposition orchestrated by heavy metal legend Tom Gabriel Warrior (Thomas Gabriel Fischer) of CELTIC FROST and HELLHAMMER fame, has released new video for the title-track ‘Shatter’, taken from their new five-track EP. EP is to be released on October 25th, 2010 (25. 10. 2010) in Europe and on October 26th, 2010 in North America via Century Media Records. Video, based on a concept devised by Warrior which combines the imagery of occult metal with the somber aesthetics of 1920s-era silent movies, was filmed and directed  by Philip Hirsch of Film-M.

EP ‘Shatter’ was produced by Warrior himself. Track listing is as follows: ‘Shatter’ , ‘I Am the Twilight’ , ‘Cruxifixus’ , ‘Circle of the Tyrants’ (Live) and ‘Dethroned Emperor’ (Live). Tracks 4 and 5 are cover versions of CELTIC FROST songs, recorded live during TRIPTYKON's headliner performance at the Roadburn Festival in Tilburg, The Netherlands in April, 2010. ‘Dethroned Emperor’ features guest lead vocals by “Nocturno Culto” (Ted Skjellum, singer for DARKTHRONE).

TRYPTIKON features: Thomas Gabriel Fischer – vocals & guitar, V. Santura (DARK FORTRESS) – guitar & vocals, Norman Lonhard (FEAR MY THOUGHTS) – drums and Vanja Slajh – bass.
