Atmospheric extreme metallers Martyrium have just revealed the cover art for their new opus, which will be titled Destiny Wore A Bondage Mask. The artwork was created by the talented Michal ‘Xaay’ Loranc, who is well-known for his digital works for Nile, Behemoth, Devilish Impressions and other metal giants. In the words of the band, “the idea was inspired by the secret voices inside the uncommon mind which reveal that the only way to freedom is through perpetual submission to abuse”.
The sound in this album is a blend of carefully selected arrangements which consists of heavy tight riffing, guttural growls, malefic screams, a variety of clean vocals together combined with dramatic orchestral scores spiced up with punchy industrial elements.
The full tracklisting for Destiny Wore A Bondage Mask is as follows:
* Through Masochistic Submission To Confinement
