Contradiction

Irreverent and antagonistic, beautifully metaphysical yet bristling with menace, the music of Schammasch denies categorization in a way that only the most creative Black Metal can do. A contradiction in more than name alone, it combines unstable forces and unpredictable elements in strange, new ways, using the energy of opposition to feed a constant process of creation and destruction. There’s a fine line between genius and insanity. This is an album that tests the very fabric of that line.
