UFOmammut - Ecate

2015 release, the seventh album from Italian power trio UFOmammut. The album is named after the ancient Greek goddess of the three worlds: The World of Humans, the World of the Gods and the World of the Dead. Throughout the centuries, her powerful figure has transformed in shape and meaning. As were many pagan deities, Ecate came to be viewed as a negative entity associated with witchcraft and black magic by the Christian church. Ecate is composed of six separate tracks, each one a representation of the deity's many manifestations. An evolution in terms of it's composition and song structure, the album takes the epic nature of the trio's last Neurot release, Oro, and distills it into something more concise and aggressive. The band continues to expand upon their previous works by infusing them into Ecate, giving the past a new form. One of the most potent and powerful doom artists in existence, UFOmammut continues to captivate the masses, and the band's worldwide grasp grows wider with each release.
