Our Take
Our Take
Amidst the chaotic cosmic landscape of black metal, MYSTICUM emerges like a comet hurtling towards the Earth with their latest offering, "Planet Satan." This Norwegian trio has been conjuring up sonic sorcery since the early '90s, and their return after a decade-long hiatus is nothing short of apocalyptic.
From the opening track, "LSD," we are plunged into a whirlwind of distorted guitars, frenetic blast beats, and guttural vocals that sound like they're echoing from the depths of the abyss. It's like being caught in a maelstrom of sound, each riff and scream tearing through the fabric of reality with malevolent glee.
"Lucifer in the Sky with Demons" channels the band's signature blend of industrial and black metal, creating a cacophony of nightmarish noise that is as hypnotic as it is terrifying. The intricate layers of synth and samples add a futuristic sheen to the chaos, giving the impression that we are hurtling through space on a collision course with hell itself.
As the album reaches its climax with the title track, "Planet Satan," MYSTICUM's vision of a dystopian future ruled by darkness and despair becomes chillingly real. The relentless onslaught of sonic violence is both exhilarating and unsettling, leaving the listener feeling like they have stared into the abyss and seen their own reflection staring back.
In a genre overflowing with imitation and mediocrity, MYSTICUM stands out as a true innovator, pushing the boundaries of black metal into uncharted territory. "Planet Satan" is a testament to their uncompromising vision and a reminder that true artistry knows no bounds. Take a trip to the dark side and let MYSTICUM be your guide.

Mysticum, the enigmatic Norwegian electronic black metal band, can only be described as a sonic force to be reckoned with. Formed in 1991, the trio has been pushing boundaries and challenging norms in the metal scene ever since. Mysticum's sound is a chaotic mix of industrial beats, harsh vocals and guttural screams that transport listeners to a dystopian realm where the lines between man and machine are blurred. Their debut album, "In the Streams of Inferno," released in 1996, was a groundbreaking masterpiece that showcased their unique vision and uncompromising approach to music. With a reputation for their intense live performances and unrivaled stage presence, MysticuM have garnered a cult following that spans the globe. Their shows are a visceral experience, with the band members clad in futuristic costumes and backed by a wall of electronic sound that engulfs audiences in a whirlwind of chaos and destruction. Despite a brief hiatus in the late 90s, Mysticum have returned with a vengeance in recent years, releasing new music that continues to push boundaries and defy expectations. Their latest album, "Planet Satan," released in 2014, is a testament to their enduring creativity and uncompromising vision. In a music scene saturated with mediocrity and conformity, Mysticum stand out as a beacon of originality and innovation. With their dark and dystopian soundscapes, they are a band that defies categorization and challenges listeners to explore the furthest reaches of the musical abyss.
