BEHEADED zapowiadają nowy album

 


Maltese award-winning death metallers BEHEADED will delve deep into their island's native folklore and beliefs on new album "Għadam", scheduled for July 25th via Agonia Records. Watch a cinematic trailer for upcoming single and music video, "Il-Kittieb", directed by Raul Noise, at this location:


"Għadam" is an album that marks a significant evolution in the band’s journey making it the first death metal album ever written in Maltese, tying Maltese horror, literature and death metal into a cohesive concept. The album incorporates musical influences rooted in the island's heritage, blending the band’s signature ferocity with elements of traditional religious and folklore music, creating a unique fusion that pays homage to the band’s cultural origins. With "Għadam," BEHEADED not only pushes the boundaries of their sound but also cements their legacy as pioneers of Maltese death metal.

"Għadam" is based and inspired by the books of Maltese horror author Anton Grasso including the title itself. The work comprises nine songs that all use the title of a book by the author, which are then interpreted in a story, theme or subject different from what one finds in the book. It is also worth mentioning that on "Għadam," one finds passages, phrases, subjects from classic works of local poetry, as well as excerpts taken from prayers and religious references.

The idea behind the choice for "Għadam" to be a work written entirely in Maltese is that it pays homage and explores the local cultural heritage in the context of everything related to horror, fear, superstitions, the occult, the macabre, folklore and how these exist hand in hand with faith and devotion.
