Danish Black Heavy Metal outfit SLAEGT (a.k.a. Slægt, meaning “lineage” / “heritage” in Danish language and pronounced /slɛɡt/), have released their fourth studio album “Goddess”, on March 18th via Century Media Records. To celebrate the release, the band have dropped a lyric-video created by Cloud Music Typography for the album’s opening track, “Deceived By An Amethyst”.
SLAEGT stated about the song: ” ‘Deceived by an Amethyst’ is a driving and pulsating, rock ‘n’ roll Metal song, with lyrics dealing about deception, wishing for the wrong things, but in the end realizing, that things have to change and ties have to be cut. All wrapped in the signature Slaegt sound, with loads of melody and edge.”
“Goddess” was recorded and mixed by Martin ‘Konie’ Ehrencrona (REFUSED, IN SOLITUDE, VIAGRA BOYS, TRIBULATION) at Studio Cobra as well as mastered by Magnus Lindberg (THE HELLACOPTERS, CULT OF LUNA, DOOL) at Redmount Studios, both in Stockholm, Sweden in late 2021. The album comes with stunning artwork created by Dávid Glomba (SVARTIDAUDI, CULT OF FIRE, MALOKARPATAN) and showcases SLAEGT’s most elaborated and accomplished work to date across 6 songs and 40 minutes of playing time.
