French Metallers ACOD, is ready to unveil their brand new full-length album “Fourth Reign Over Opacities And Beyond”, the perfect sequel of the band’s previous opus. A shiny Black Death Metal with epic parts who reveals the beauty and the greatness of the depths. This saga tells the long journey of a uncommon soul into the abyss. Loosing faith in men and gods, but also in himself. Facing his own fears in form of chimeras. Trying to understand what this tormented afterlife is, as a strong similarity with our current lives. But everything happens for a reason and the revelation could be made at the end of his path…
“Fourth Reign Over Opacities And Beyond” will be out on September 16th through Les Acteurs de l’Ombre Productions. In support of the upcoming album, ACOD have released a new single entitled “The Prophecy Of Agony”.
With the release of four albums and two EPs, as well as the epic “Lustmord and Tourgasm” European tour alongside CRADLE OF FILTH in April 2019 and a French tour with ARCH ENEMY in summer 2019, ACOD have become a leading force in the French Metal scene. With a constant output and live activities since the band’s inception in 2006, the band has won the heart of many extreme music fans out there, from newcomers to experienced metalheads.
The new album was recorded during 2021 at Fascination Street Studios. Mix by Linus Corneliusson and master by Jens Borgen. Stunning artwork by Paolo Girardi.
