Scandinavian black metal classicists Mimorium have unleashed the first single/video taken from the band's upcoming third album, The Route Of Haeresis, set for release on 12 August via Spread Evil Productions. Check on the "Mirror Dimension" NSFW video right below.
Mimorium was formed in 2016 in Finland, though its sound relates more to Scandinavian black metal, as they are rooted deeply in the '90s Swedish and also Norwegian black metal scenes. One can hear echoes of old Dissection, Mörk Gryning, and Dark Funeral in Mimorium's fast-paced and melodic black metal as a successful tribute brought to the new millennium, still sounding very much their own and something different simultaneously.
In 2020 released sophomore full-length, Blood Of Qayin, rightfully brought Mimorium to many new ears, proving that the past is alive but arguably fresher than ever. Not ones to rest on its all-too-considerable laurels, the quintet now returns with a new record - perhaps more melodic, dramatic, and aggressive than ever - The Route Of Haeresis. Suitably built upon a theme of old-school witchcraft and esoteric teachings, The Route Of Haeresis sees Mimorium firing on all cylinders, its (literal) execution just as sharp as ever but rendered in rippingly clear-yet-analogue tones. The more organic production takes nothing away from the band's inherent ultraviolence - indeed, its OTT speed is challenged by few - but the melodies here breathe fire instead of frost, and the well-timed dips into down-tempo convey a grandeur only previously hinted at.
