BECKAHESTEN - Unveil First Track From Upcoming Debut Album

Swedish ritual/industrial/folk/dark ambient act Beckahesten, featuring members Peo Bengtsson, Per Åhlund (Skare, Diskrepant and also former member of Sophia and live member of Karjalan Sissit) and the otherworldly vocal prowess of Viktoria Rolandsdotter, will release on 20th November via Cyclic Law the debut album entitled Vattenhålens Dräpare.

Beckahesten sound lingers within the shadow lands of ritual and folklore where solemn harmonies and rhythms intertwine with lyrical poetry, becoming rites and omens. Taking its name from an ancient folk tale of a horse that takes children onto it's back to then bring them to a nearby lake and drown them… We’re offered a singular journey through windy fields and misty forests where mournful cries lure us toward the resting place of the pale and lifeless. White and insidiously beautiful it lures every soul to the eternal slumber within forest ponds and black pines. This whispering being of sheer mist and endlessly terrifying darkness. Check out the promo video and listen to the album opener and the first revealed song "Förnimmelsen" in the player below. Link
