Death-obsessed black metal band KOSTNATÄšNÍ has signed with Willowtip Records and will soon unleash its second full-length album,Úpal.

Invisible Oranges brings us the first single off this boundary-pushing, 7-track onslaught of extreme black metal. Check out "Nevolnost je vše, čím jsem (Nausea Is All I Am)," along with an interview with KOSTNATĚN mastermind D.L., now atthis location.

"...an amalgam of strange time signatures, microtonality, folk rhythms, and, of course, black metal, resulting in a dizzying type of music unlike anything else I've actually ever heard."- Invisible Oranges

Úpalwill be out on CD, gatefold vinyl and digital formats on May 26. Pre-order the album atkostnateni.bandcamp.com

Úpal("heatstroke") is a story of the human condition as a function of heat. The rise of consciousness in warm-blooded creatures has given rise to impossibly dense, illogical webs of thought that can completely divorce our lived experience from the physical world around us.

Anxiety, fixations, and hallucinations can appear without material basis, setting our overactive neurons on fire. To bring this vivid scene to life, KOSTNATÄšNÍ has become both more meditative and more chaotic, introducing influences from sources as varied as African folk and noise rock into its technical black metal basis. Evoking both the searing rays of the desert sun and the melting of one's sanity,Úpalwalks the fine line between burning up and burning out.

Tracklist (titles in Czech and English)
1. Řemen (The Belt)
2. Hořím navždy (I Burn Forever)
3. Rukojmí empatie (Hostage of Empathy)
4. Opál (Opal)
5. Skrýt se před Bohem (Hide from God)
6. Nevolnost je vše, čím jsem (Nausea Is All I Am)
7. Slunce svázáno s krvácející Zemí (Sun Bound to the Bleeding Earth)

Úpalwas written and recorded from October 2020 to October 2021. Vocals were recorded in late 2021-early 2022. The drums were mixed and recorded in the fall of 2022 at The Weeb Dungeon by Andrew Lee. The album was mastered by Jacob Buczarski.
