The mysterious DIABLERIE surfaced out of the Serbian shadows in 2020 with an amazing self-explanatory release called MMXX and at the time it was only released digitally via DIABLERIE's own bandcamp. However, the recording immediately caught the attention of Septenary Arts and it was agreed that SA would have the honour of bringing out the recording in physical formats.

But there was more to come. While waiting for the physical release of MMXX, the dark mind behind this entity, KG, prepared another recording, the first official album, Choreomania, which continues precisely where MMXX left off.

KG has described DIABLERIE as primitive sorcery and spectral communion – and, indeed, entering the unique soundscape of both of these recordings, you will quickly find yourself within a beautiful, alluring and transcendental world of ancient demonolatry and magick.

BATHORY LEGION / HERMANN KOPP - Das Unheimliche

"Das Unheimliche on yhtenäinen ja taiten kasattu kokonaisuus, joka nimestään lähtien johdattelee kuulijaansa monenlaisten kiinnostavien ajatuksien ja ilmiöiden suuntaan. Se on selvästikin aivan jotain muuta kuin vain yksi kokeellinen levytys monien muiden joukossa. Siinä on syvään etsattuna ainutlaatuisen sinetti."

Das Unheimliche is a collaborative split recording between legendary Germany composer Hermann Kopp and Luciferian composer Bathory Legion.

Das Unheimliche, which means the uncanny or eerie, is the first collaborative effort between these two imposing talents. Bathory Legion, who came up with the title, holds this concept to be the natural evolution, the coagulation, of the previous album Drepe, with its esoteric and sinister meaning overcoming the psychological one. Triggered by a recent event experienced, the Roman artist imagined a modified tetrahedron, a “terrible jewel,” as symbol – not of chemistry but of alchemy – fading into beauty. Bathory Legion’s opening track is titled “Lahko” (the Finnish word for “sect” or “cult”) and begins with a voice captured from the Russian radio UVB-76, evolving into a rhythmic avant-garde and experimental ambient adventure.

Hermann Kopp, who has made a significant reputation for his soundtracks to Nekromantik and Der Todesking in the ’80s, bases his “uncanny” track on a movie from 1913, The Student of Prague, in which a demonic figure named Scapinelli makes a young student sell his soul, takes away his reflection in the mirror, and creates a disturbing doppelganger. The track “Scapinelli” contains a quotation from the movie. Regarding Kopp‘s second track, “GAS n.71,” this was part of a series of recordings Hermann realized in 2017, a series which he called GAS. The recording was covered and remixed by Bathory Legion as the second track of the release with an intense pipe organ & drums sound.

Regarding the details of the artwork, Bathory Legion photographed a fairly old bottle in a house of the Apuan Alps, and this fact is full of meaning – which, however, will remain secret – and then created a digital painting of it.

Attention!

Septenary Arts is proud to announce Das Unheimliche - a collaboration between Bathory Legion and Hermann Kopp.

After last year's terrific Drepe album, also released on Septenary Arts, the Roman esoterist Bathory Legion makes a return with two pieces that can be seen as the natural but more "melodic" continuation of Drepe. Joining in with two pieces of his own is the legendary composer Hermann Kopp, known world-wide for his stunning works for Nekromantik and Der Todesking.

Das Unheimliche explores the concept of the "uncanny" – but, rest assured, this has absolutely nothing to do with Sigmund Freud. So, be prepared for four pieces of “extravagant art” - a terrible jewel.

Exact release date to be announced later. Photo / digital painting and cover art by Bathory Legion.

As the release date for the first two Septenary Arts releases is drawing near... Here is a bit more information on the mysterious entity called Bathory Legion for those of you who have not read the interview featured in the latest TSF issue.

"Already walking on the Sinister Esoteric path, BL started out as a Black Metal drummer and keyboardist from 1995 to 2000 playing in various underground formations.

In 2000, with Black Metal having lost much of its original meaning, BL abandoned the genre and commenced working under the name BATHORY LEGION on a unique blend of Avant-Garde music, Black Industrial, Occult Ambient and Obscure Electro, drawing forth inspiration from the quintessence of past experiences, with a style that may be compared to the electronic manifestations of DIABOLOS RISING and BEHERIT.

In 2019, BATHORY LEGION joined The Sinister Flame's ranks by signing to TSF sub-label Septenary Arts, and the first collaboration to manifest out of this pact was an in-depth interview published on TSF VI "Black Pilgrimage", wherein she explained the implication of the Esoteric in her personal and artistic life.

'Drepe - [Handligsförlamat]' - BL's thirteenth work - is to be released on March the 20th."

BATHORY LEGION Drepe - Handligsförlamat MCD [SA002]

- "BL returns with a short but soul-crushing brand new opus Drepe - Handligsförlamat, which translates to 'Killing - Paralysed in the Soul'; a clear hint of the intent and purpose of this new offering, an indissoluble triad whose three heads are concept, artwork and music. An entity that lurks between the shadows of genres such as Black Industrial in the past, Ritual Dark Ambient and unconventional fields such as Experimental and Avant-Garde music. Harvest time has come!"
