CMPT

Today, Balkan black metallers CMPT stream the entirety of their highly anticipated second album, Na utrini. Set for international release on December 27th via Osmose Productions, hear CMPT‘s Na utrini in its entirety here:

The second in the ambitious Balkan black metal trilogy, started with the debut album Na utrini, offers a conceptual prequel set before the events of the previous album begin to unfold. Utrina comes from the local vocabulary usually meaning a neglected, uncultivated land that no one pays attention to anymore. It is a desolate piece of land at the end of villages, between fields and forests, roads and marshlands, alienated and abandoned by common folk.

While Krv i pepeo carries the symbol of bloodlust, Na utrini paves its way in symbols of land, mud, and dirt and, as such, explores the world located on the northern wing of the Danube bank in the lower part of the Pannonian basin. These wet and muddy lands at the foot of the Carpathians were, for centuries, both home and the grave for numerous empires and civilizations, many of which still have their mark in local folklore, beliefs, and toponyms. It was here that the ancestors of the southern Slavs made their last stop before definitively settling on the Balkan Peninsula.

Once again following the night and the local “demon hour” (Serbian: “gluvo doba”), Na utrini is a record about the darkness of abandoned places, old ruins, cemeteries, wastelands, and liminal spaces that time has forgotten.

Today, Serbian black metallers CMPT premiere the new track “Srce od trnja.” The track is the second to be revealed from the band’s highly anticipated debut album, Krv i pepeo, set for international release on December 21st via Osmose Productions. Hear CMPT‘s “Srce od trnja” in its entirety here:

Down the southern part of the Danube basin, in a land historically known as the Balkans, for centuries, the local population has cultivated a specific relation towards certain periods of daytime. With the basis on which all tribal activities were organized, one such period was an exception to all others and concerned the movement at particular times of the night. The locals call this period “Gluvo doba” (English: “Deaf Age”), and in the old beliefs, it is also known as “Demon Hour.”

“Deaf Age” refers to the darkest moment in the night, the time when unclean spirits and the forces of the underworld take over the world while nature sinks into silence. It is commonly believed to start somewhere around midnight and last until the first morning sounds. At that time, the barrier to the beyond is the weakest, so witches and demons are easily connected through haunted practices.

Krv i pepeo (English: “Blood and ash”) directly refers to this ritualistic bond and, at the same time, incidentally represents two symbols that have historically marked the entire Balkan continuum. Uncovering the layers of the profane, Krv i pepeo is a conceptual record composed as a ritual piece of dark Balkan sorcery, and it is a spiritual offering to the ancient cult of the dead!
