Leonov release first single from upcoming album Wake
We're thrilled to announce the signing of celestial doom act Leonov! Hear the first taster from their upcoming Fysisk Format album "Wake". Eucharist out now!
The single premiered over at Cvlt Nation earlier this week. Listen here
Leonov started their collaboration towards the end of 2010 and released their eponymous album in 2014. The band has recently signed to Fysisk Format for the release of their second album, "Wake". The album is scheduled for release October 26th 2018. "Eucharist" is the first taster from the new album.
The band states:
"Eucharist is about the mystical and somehow obscure experience of food in its material form, turning into a holy ritual. We wanted to merge the overwhelming feeling of touching something greater, and the desperate and anguished realization of there being so many things in this reality that we really don’t have access to."
"Eucharist was one of the first songs we made for the new album. It was recorded in Malabar Studio with our friend Christoffer Gaarder, who helped us create the garagesound we were looking for. Our old bassist Erlend Torp was an important part of the design of the song, and when Morten Kjelling became the band's new bassist and recorded it in studio, it got an even heavier feel. The song summarizes our love for the heavy and resounding, with big and deep blows that enter into the existential space"
