Absolutely wonderful - I listened to it four times today, while working on old fossils from the 'Swiss' seas 240 million years ago; a magical day in the dungeons!
This is a mindblowing, transcendental album. It's the kind of music you don't just listen to, but rather experience it. The kind that sends shivers down your entire body. Truly, what a release.
Unfassbar , Unglaublich , Atemberaubend , Wunderschön , Diese Band berührt mich jedesmal ein bisschen mehr , Diese Emotionen , Diese Melancholie , DAS ist meine Musik ♥
Xmas is the 25th of October this year, not December. I am lucky enough, thanks to a "too fast released" by post services, to be one of the few receiving their presents before the official date. I'm listening it again and again since Monday... This is another great album from Schammasch. Thank you so much for it !
"Image of the Infinite"... i cant explain the feeling that that songs transmit... such a incredible song and album... Schammasch you made an amazing album.. no words.. thanks!
Only a few bands have me return frequently to ponder on lyrics and re-engage to find another perspective in the depth of their soundscapes, Schammasch manages to make me do at least one of those two with basically every song. I Hail you, Schammasch.
Hail from the Netherlands! Maldoror Chants I was an underrated masterpiece. Somehow, I have the feeling this one is going to be even better. Anything with an Oceanic theme is an immediate sell for me. Can't wait for when the preorder goes live. I've set aside a few hours of the 25th to loop this a few times (and Gaerea's new album too).
Definitely, you NEVER disappoint! Beauty, quality, and you always stay true to your vision! With each of your new albums, I am proud that you are Swiss! Thank you!
Schammasch has proven to be a constantly evolving entity, their Promethean spirit and philosophical quest growing ever more ambitious in its scope. New album portrayed expansive dynamics, exhilaratingly dramatic musical frontier, a fevered and transformative spiritual quest that sounds like it’s interrogating the surface of the sun. The band has reached a new, creative zenith. Here the band gets to explore their more experimental side, with ambiance, and drone influences being driven to the fore. This ably demonstrates that the band’s already wide-ranging repertoire reaches even further than previously shown. It’s a very accomplished achievement that’s delivered, performed and executed by professionals who have a true love for their art. Hails from India.
I am completely blown away by both the new opus and its premiere! Schammasch elegantly reinstate the concept of the Greek Tragedy with an omniscient narrator's vocal register unfolding MULTIFACETED and guitarwork captivating the listener like the embrace of inescapable tentacles. The Maldoror Chants: Old Ocean is a monumental work of art with layers of intricacies as dense as the depths it exalts! Schammasch, I salute you!
amazing....nothing to say much....10 out of 10 in every aspect!...especially I have to say the vinyl design that you made is just purification of art!....love you so much!
Have listened to the new album 2x already. It dropped on my Apple Music at midnight. On my 3rd listen right now. Can’t wait to share this beautiful masterpiece with my friends. It’s truly something special
I rarely listen to a full album, as I am more the type to really like one or two songs. Not with this one, barely 10 days released and it already has been listened to over and over again. Schammasch, as always, scratches that itch of a deeper yearning and desire to connect to our deeper selves. Breathtaking.
Vinyl copy arrived yesterday and gave it three spins right off the bat. Once again, an absolutely astounding offering. Wave after wave of atmosphere and power. Thank you for this incredible album!
What an unbelievable album. I love how much you have expanded your sound, everything you come out with manages to hit the exact niche of everything I want to hear. Thank you for another incredible album.
Both singles have promised us a monumental piece of music, and both pieces truly allowed us a glimpse into the artistic puzzle you've given us. Right now, I think I have listened to the whole creation at least five times already, from the opening, to the spectacular finish. Every note and sound are exactly where they should be, and together with your mesmerizing second rendition of Les chants de Maldoror, they make a generational album - the one that sets the standards, the one that pushes the boundaries, and leaves an unquestionable mark upon the musical world. I think I speak for the most of us when I say - thank you for sharing this captivating piece of art, it is truly a great pleasure to co-exist in the same timeline as Schammasch, and watch you create this in real time. 🖤
There is a lot of great metal bands but Schammasch is something different. Musically they are amazing and when you read the lyrics, you can see how much effort they put into it. Those guys give me the chills
Schammasch é uma das bandas que mais me chamou atenção pela melodia e criatividade sendo uma opção absoluta de que não tem nada igual, só eles tem identidade própria sonora junto com a banda Bölzer e Ulcerate, sorte de quem conhece esses fantásticos músicos que sabem colocar emoções nas suas canções
Goddammit this is all I have hoped for. Your _Hermaphrodite_ made me read Lautréamont and I’ve been waiting for a new Maldoror chant of yours ever since. Seeing you interpret Lautréamont, I even believed to notice some of his influence elsewhere, especially on _In Dialogue with Death_ … no quotes, I think, just the type of poetry and the choice of words. Incredibly inspiring.
I don't know if this album is their best, but I have to say that it's the album that's impacting me very strongly and deeply, and that's because of the voices. The vocal work is really wonderful. There's a lot of rage, fury and also drama, passion, suffering. And if that wasn't enough, there's the female voice of the great Kathrine Shepard. No, this is too much. I'm dying pleasantly. Thanks Schammasch, see you on the other side.
@@Schammasch I will. And I know it's not on you. It's just incredibly frustrating because I used to preorder every single time when one of my favourite bands put out a new record, but now I simply can't do it anymore, and it makes me sad... Thank you for understanding!
По мне этот альбом уступает предыдущим альбомам группы звучание на новом альбоме стало слишком мелодичным и особо нет запоминающихся вещей со времен эпохального альбома Triangle! Увы я разочарован!
I have already heard it on spotify, but I have some words about the last song I want to share. Spoilers for those who haven't heard it yet!; The last song on old ocean, is like a homage to old black metal. It's like they went further and further back in time. From Gorgoroth riffing to Bathory viking chants at the end, and then ending with Dungeon synth from Mortiis and Burzum. My god, and the title as well "I hail you, old ocean" so many layers to this.......I really loved that, hailing to old BM roots, and hailing to the maldoror story, hails to all old roots that made us be🙏
A goregues, immersive listen. Thank you Schammasch, for your hard work has paid off yet again.
Absolutely wonderful - I listened to it four times today, while working on old fossils from the 'Swiss' seas 240 million years ago; a magical day in the dungeons!
Absolutely trendy and no real RAWness like it should. A virus...like too many fans of this.
@@RobertEnleed "like it should be" - according to the one & only trve gospel by...? Hint: This ain't 1st nor 2nd wave Scandi-black, sweetiepie 💋
Prehistory, all of it, is a pseudoscience hoax.
This is a mindblowing, transcendental album. It's the kind of music you don't just listen to, but rather experience it. The kind that sends shivers down your entire body. Truly, what a release.
Every Schammasch album is a ritual experience.
you know it's gonna be great when your favorite band uploads a 50 minute MMORPG log-in screen on RUclips

Mastery of a Divine Majesty 🔱🌊

I'm completely in love with this album right now, holy. 🖤
Another masterpiece of Schammasch. Unglaubich!
screw album of the year, this is album of the decade level material 🔥
A lot of anger and dramatism in the voices! I love them, they penetrate deep into my soul.
Thanks Schammasch for this masterpiece.
Hail from the Netherlands!
Maldoror Chants I was an underrated masterpiece. Somehow, I have the feeling this one is going to be even better. Anything with an Oceanic theme is an immediate sell for me.

Can confirm. Another masterpiece.
Crystal Waves is absolutely sublime (along They Have Found Their Master and Image of the Infinite).
Absolutely beautiful, profound album. Incredible work by the band!
I can't find the words to describe how much I love this record. This significant piece of art will stay with me.
A great statement of music
Unique and powerful album as always
I just like that you reference one triangle song lyrical:
"because I would rejoice..."
Definitely, you NEVER disappoint! Beauty, quality, and you always stay true to your vision! With each of your new albums, I am proud that you are Swiss! Thank you!
And finally a great album came out once again from Schammasch... Thank you Schammasch... and thank you for your concert in Istanbul just recently...
Played this album 3 times over already, another masterpiece I cannot stop listening to!
Schammasch kolejny raz zapewnia doświadczenie wręcz mistyczne...Wspaniała podróż dziękuję Sercem pozdrawiam

Schammasch, I salute you!
I Hail You, Schammasch! The gothic singing parts are just great, as the rest of this double Album is absolutely thrilling!
Schammasch is like a good book: it immediately immerses you into yourself and holds you to the final! ❤️

Fans since contradiction/triangle era!
🔥🔥🔥🔥

Majestic album 🖤 Love to listen it start to finish. It never fails to make my day better. Thank you, Schammasch.

Amazing album! Didn't expected such quality. Greetings from Romania!

Wow! This is so amazing, that I´m out of words to describe my feelings for it. You got yourselves a new fan.

Been listening to you guys since 2017! Such a masterpiece! Transcendental
Discovery of the year! Thanks guys!
Amazing material! Very athmospheric!
This album became one of my top. Very diverse and profound
There is a lot of great metal bands but Schammasch is something different. Musically they are amazing and when you read the lyrics, you can see how much effort they put into it.
Those guys give me the chills
Really enjoying this thank you
When dark metal, Occultism and Wovenhand/ 16 horse power, meet. Well done, guys!
Beautiful album
Just placed a vinyl order for the sapphire. Amazing work!
This is modern black metal
This is the future of this genre
So... I love the future.
Please, press more LPs, thanks.
Fantastic album.
Every artist or group of artists who pay tribute to Los Cantos de Maldoror deserve greater respect. Hail, oh Count of Lautreamont.
A majestic piece, one which will keep me company for many Novembers to follow.
what a masterpiece !!!! Good job, as always....
Finaly, after so many years...👏

the comment that I looked for!
Que prazer ouvir a vocês. Álbum fantástico.

Will comment this later..at the moment i am speechless..🤘
Another amazing album
awesome album......🖤
MOM! MOM! New SCHAMMASCH!!!!!
Goddammit this is all I have hoped for. Your _Hermaphrodite_ made me read Lautréamont and I’ve been waiting for a new Maldoror chant of yours ever since.

It's really fantastic!
few hours ago i ordered it. eyes glowing feeling
Μεγαλείο!!!
Massive! 🔥
This is nice. Somehow I hear Diary of Dreams vibes, but metal. Looking forward to see the band live at Kilkim Žaibu festival-2025.
As always. Perfection
Waiting to see ya Kilkim Žaibu

the old oceanic grace of equanimity
You guys rock
Impresionante
Come to Seattle!!

Your greatest opus to date, no contest.

Comienza la cuenta regresiva...
My wallet cannot take anymore orders, too many good metal albums have come out in recent years
I wish I'd had the money to preorder it... But with the money that I would have to spend on postage, I could buy the album a second time...
Unfortunately we can't change prices of the Swiss postal service. But you can order it from local businesses of course.
@@Schammasch I will. And I know it's not on you. It's just incredibly frustrating because I used to preorder every single time when one of my favourite bands put out a new record, but now I simply can't do it anymore, and it makes me sad... Thank you for understanding!
Yeah and don't forget customs fees 🫤
Thought I was hearing Eric Clayton on that first track.
По мне этот альбом уступает предыдущим альбомам группы звучание на новом альбоме стало слишком мелодичным и особо нет запоминающихся вещей со времен эпохального альбома Triangle! Увы я разочарован!

Not my type of metal but great production
AOTY contender
I have already heard it on spotify, but I have some words about the last song I want to share. Spoilers for those who haven't heard it yet!;
The last song on old ocean, is like a homage to old black metal. It's like they went further and further back in time. From Gorgoroth riffing to Bathory viking chants at the end, and then ending with Dungeon synth from Mortiis and Burzum. My god, and the title as well "I hail you, old ocean" so many layers to this.......I really loved that, hailing to old BM roots, and hailing to the maldoror story, hails to all old roots that made us be🙏
