With a dozen ferocious and lauded albums since 1996′s Daemon Qui Fecit Terra, HATE‘s fortunate thirteenth album, Bellum Regiis, sees the unrelenting Polish quartet forging a bolder and extra aggressive model than ever.

Produced by David Castillo (Candlemass, Carcass, Darkish Tranquillity, Katatonia) at Stockholm’s Grondahl Studio, Bellum Regiis is lyrically a extra “humanity centered and private” album than 2021′s Rugia whereas its songs are well timed aural and visible exploration of, in keeping with the vocalist, “a wrestle for energy and the whole lot that comes with it.”

Therefore the album title, which interprets to “A Struggle Of Royalty” or “A Struggle Of Kings.” The band’s frontman seems on the arduous questions surrounding energy – does its attainment make us aberrant or are we aberrant to start with? The title monitor encompasses the LP’s leitmotif. “As a music, ‘Bellum Regiis’ has each a deep melancholy and a way of grandeur,” he says. “The vocals laid down by [renowned singer and voice teacher who runs a holistic arts center in Bialystok] Eliza Sacharczuk give the music a powerful sense of time. Whether or not that’s nostalgia, memory, remorse, or preparation for the longer term is within the eye of the beholder. These wars, these struggles, have been ongoing because the daybreak of our existence. Whether or not they’re futile or not, they’re scars on our very nature.”

They’re extra nuanced and wider-ranging, capable of painting feelings and meanings in a extra highly effective approach.”
Prematurely of the discharge, in the present day the band unveils their first single, “Iphigenia.” Sinner elaborates, “in Greek mythology, Iphigenia was the daughter of King Agamemnon and Queen Clytemnestra, and a princess of Mycenae. The music got here first on this case, however there was a direct must fill with content material and the story of Iphigenia appeared to attach with it superbly. It’s a narrative about sacrificing your life for a larger trigger. However the instance of Iphigenia is placing as a result of she at one level is given a selection and might save her personal life, but she decides to be put to loss of life and on this approach assist help the Greek aspect within the Trojan Struggle. It’s a narrative of sacrifice which might, all the best way because the days of Aeschylus and Euripides, divide an viewers of listeners. Is it monstrous of her father to be prepared to sacrifice her because of the strain of his generals? To appease Artemis? Is it then heroic or brainwashed that she would sacrifice herself for her folks’s trigger?“
