New album, “Latomie”, out now!
In Greco-Roman antiquity, latomie were stone or marble quarries that were used to incarcerate slaves, prisoners of war, or criminals in general. Today, the term, by extension, can be interpreted as “prison” while also possessing certain occult connotations. However, for BATHORY LEGION, latomie represent places where you die and disappear – or you are reborn stronger.
Musically, Latomie could be seen carrying on where BATHORY LEGION left off on Bukkake S.T.N. [2012] in that it serves commanding black industrial with obscure electronic and avant-garde elements. Yet, this is a recording that defies easy categorization, as each track is completely different from each other. What you will understand at once, though, is that you are witnessing something genuinely sinister. It is also worth noting that Latomie is the first BATHORY LEGION release without any collaborators involved.
Latomie is an entity and an experience – and if you lose thyself in its hypnotic layers with an open heart, you will find yourself amidst the mysteries of the latomie.
