The legendary eccentrics Master's Hammer reveal the new video "Anděl slizu". The track is the second to be shown from the band's highly anticipated ninth album, Maldorör Disco, set for international release on 26 November via Darkness Shall Rise Productions.

The Czech masters of oddity and weirdness return! After Master's Hammer performed the last show in support of the album Fascinator in 2018, it seemed that the Czech legends' story had finally come to a close for good. But instead of having been laid to rest, the band only went into hibernation and is now back with a new album after seven years.

Not the least concerned with fitting in, Master's Hammer's refusal to be confined to certain genres and play by anybody's rules has resulted in many highly original albums that defied categorisation. Unsurprisingly, Maldorör Disco, the band's ninth album, follows in this direction and is yet another bold release by Master's Hammer, showcasing the group's commitment to pushing boundaries. 

Although Maldorör Disco is still unmistakably Master's Hammer, it's probably their most experimental and least-black-metal-sounding album to date. Entirely lacking fast paces, the album's 10 tracks predominantly oscillate between slow- and mid-tempos. Guitars do not so much dominate the album as in the past; instead, Franta's characteristic riffs are accompanied by layers of various electronic elements. Besides the masterfully composed synthesisers and keyboards, the multiple voices appearing throughout the album and the way they are arranged play a pivotal role in Maldorör Disco. 

The visual presentation of the album deserves a special mention; Franta has again come up with some beautifully bizarre artworks. Marvelling at these surreal masterpieces and reading the disturbingly amusing lyrics while listening to the music is the right way to experience this album. Link
