MANSION: Premiere New Track On TheObelisk.com From "SVART" EP Out Today
October 24, 2015
Today, psychedelic occult rockers Mansion premiere the new track "Traitor's Dirge" at slow & low authority TheObelisk.net. The track hails from the band's new EP, Altar Sermon, released internationally today via Svart Records on 12" vinyl and digital formats.
As mysterious as it gets, Finland's Mansion derive their moniker the local Christian apocalyptic "mansionite" cult of Kartanoism, which lived its glory days from the 1920s to the 1950s. Kartano is the Finnish word for mansion and is the surname of cult leader Alma Kartano. Fittingly, Mansion was brought together to create music strongly reflecting the life of the cult's followers.
To date, Mansion have released two EPs, 2013's We Shall Live - which featured the video "Slumber Sermon" - and Uncreation the following year, which musically illustrated the mansionites journeying further on their crusade against the mundane and sinful with frightening conviction. With Altar Sermon, Mansion present their most harrowing vision yet, which was visually reflected in the title track's video HERE. Hear that sonic vision with "Traitor's Dire" exclusively HERE, courtesy of TheObelisk.net. (More info about the Kartanoism cult, around which the band's material and image are based, can be found HERE.) Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
