Stygian - Dreadlands (2025)

A journey through the contrast between two worlds: pagan spirituality, rooted in harmony with nature, and the legacy of Abrahamic religions, which often indulge humanity's violent nature. Pagan religions, through sacred rituals, channeled these primal instincts, preserving the balance between humans and their natural environment. This album celebrates respect for life and the ancestral bond with nature, standing in opposition to the war and destruction that, in the name of faith, have severed that connection. A fusion of black metal and crust punk, infused with ritualism and ferocity, inviting reflection on what has been sacrificed in the conflict between spirituality and dogma.
