Swiss avant-garde metal gods Triptykon have just released a brand new video for the eight-minute-long epic opening track of their masterpiece album Melana Chasmata.

The track is called “Tree of Suffocating Souls” and is the second video from the album, following up the outstanding “Aurorae.” Much like its predecessor, this video is shot entirely in black and white, but this one stands as more of a straight ahead performance clip.

Watch the video for “Tree of Suffocating Souls” here below.

Morbid Tales: An Illustrated Tribute to Celtic Frost edited by Mark Rudolph

Here’s a project I am highly excited about — an illustrated Celtic Frost tribute graphic novel!

Coming this Fall is Morbid Tales!: An Illustrated Tribute to Celtic Frost, a graphic novel anthology from CV Comics that documents the fictional/factual history of the Swiss metal band that will delve more into the music rather than lyrics. The group, fronted by Tom G. Warrior (currently in the band Triptykon) released several records in the 80s to much acclaim, like their 1984 debut Morbid Tales before they dove a bit too far into the experimental realm (Into the Pandemonium) and then completely alienated their thrash/blac metal fanbase with their failed foray into hair metal (Cold Lake).

CVComics has released a trailer for their upcoming book, which you can view here below.

Watch the video for “Aurorae” here below.

The song is the fifth track off the band’s epic album Melana Chasmata, which is currently my frontrunner for album of the year. For my full review of the album, click here.

Tom Gabriel Warrior (aka Tom G. Warrior aka Thomas Gabriel Fischer) is apparently not a man to rest on his laurels. No one could blame the man if, at the age of 50, he were to trudge around a “greatest hits” package just to cash in on his legendary status. After all, he was the driving force behind not one, but two of extreme metal’s most seminal bands, Hellhammer and Celtic Frost. In fact, Warrior is considered by many to be one of the founding fathers of both the black metal and avant-garde metal genres.

But, after an ill-fated Celtic Frost reunion in 2007 failed to heal old wounds between Tom G and his long-time collaborator Martin Ain, he swore off both bands forever — a resolution which was reiterated 7 years later when he turned down an offer of $140,000 for Celtic Frost to play a single, one-hour reunion set as the 2014 headliners of metal’s biggest festival, Wacken Open Air in Germany.

No, Mr. Fischer has no time for a stroll down memory lane, because he is busy working on a trifecta. His latest band, Triptykon, is rapidly establishing itself as one of the most bone-crushingly heavy, black, sludge, doom metal bands in the world.
