Today, Osmose Productions
announces December 21st as the international release date for CMPT's highly anticipated debut
album, Krv i pepeo, on CD, vinyl LP, and
cassette tape formats.
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!
First track premiere to be revealed on November 29th. Cover and tracklisting
