Ukraine's melodic black metal band Deus Sabaoth have signed with Paragon Records to release their sophomore album, Distortion Of Lies, on 29 May.
The band comments on the album: "Distortion Of Lies drifts through the fragile architectures we build to protect ourselves from reality. It traces the quiet seduction of belief — whether wrapped in sacred language or stitched together from desperate hope — and exposes how easily comfort becomes deception. And beyond the longest night, there will be a dawn, when every distortion fades, leaving nothing but what was real all along".
To give fans a taste of what's to come, the band has released the first single, "Worship", now streaming on all digital platforms. "In this cold-lit sermon where redemption and obedience blur, and devotion feels less demanded than desired, the thrill lies not in force, but in the willing surrender to something feared, and thus revered", says the band.
Deus Sabaoth was formed in 2023. The lyrical themes explore religious criticism, existentialism, nihilism, and solitude. Their debut album, Cycle Of Death, was released in January 2025. Link
