Very promising first song from the new Triptykon album "Melana Chasmata", out April 15 on Century Media. This is probably the best song I've heard from this band, I'm confident the album will be sick! The amazing artwork is, once again, an original piece by renowned Swiss artist HR Giger.
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law... and dat we gonna do, mane!

Influenced by Romanticism his painting is symbolist with mythological subjects often overlapping with the Pre-Raphaelites. His pictures portray mythological, fantastical figures along classical architecture constructions (often revealing an obsession with death) creating a strange, fantasy world.
The best known of his paintings, "The Isle Of The Dead" (of which there were 5 versions), inspired many other artists : H.R. Giger (also Swiss) did two paintings of it in hommage to Böcklin, Rachmaninoff wrote a symphonic poem (Op.29) about it...
