New album, “Laio”, out on May 23rd!
“Laio” means lament in Galizian a title that perfectly defines the intention behind BALMOG’s fifth studio album. We are facing what is probably the most mature and elaborate album of the band’s career, a work made from spontaneousness and viscerally but also from the experience acquired over years. In “Laio” you can feel the beating of a heart spitting blood and a scream from the depths of BALMOG’s soul, the virginity and violence of the first albums with the personality and eclecticism of the predecessor “EVE” (2021).
This album walks between the entire tradition of rock and metal under the unstoppable blade of black metal. A path that wanders between Pink Floyd, Ved Buens Ende or Bathory and Mayhem, a path that will be familiar to many listeners but always with the unmistakable sign of BALMOG marked with fire.
Based on a balance between maturity and impetuousness, this is the quintessence of BALMOG in its purest.
“Laio” was recorded and mixed at Moontower Studios (Destroyer 666, Teitanblood, Graveyard) by Javier Félez and mastered at Orgone Studios (Hexvessel, Ulver, Paradise Lost) by Jaime Gómez Arellano. The artwork, cover and layout was created by frontman Balc.
