Shakespearean Black Metal OPERA Innovators THE PROJECTIONIST Return Under the Cruel Glow…
Following the success of the break-out, undisputable Black Metal album of the year, "The Stench of Amalthia", Canada’s sinister theatrical Black Metal consortium known as THE PROJECTIONIST return with a brand new 6-track MCD "Under the Cruel Glow of Terror"! THE PROJECTIONIST use classic heavy metal song structuring that embodies “all the hooks” & essence of true heavy metal, within a modern black / death metal context.
While not a part of The NightHag operetta saga, “Under the Cruel Glow of Terror" features the Shakespearean poetry of Lord Matzigkeitus, rich in tragic, dark tales. Solely vocalized by the unholy master of otherworldly shrieking, Lord Matzigkeitus eloquently accompanies the unique musical darkness evoked by Parageist, Orpheus, Destroyer and Malphas through corridors of higher art in Black Metal.
A prelude to 2021’s new album "Matriarch of the First Drained Veins" and LM’s book “Spell Possessed”!

“The music creates an atmosphere of tension and fear, and then leaps ahead with snapping snare and juddering double-bass, of pulsing bass guitar and demented riff frenzies that bespeak increasing madness.” – No Clean Singing
