Post/Doom Metal Group LOVIATAR Release “Discordant (Stygian Wyrm Part II)” Lyric Video

Watch Here via Metal Injection

New Self-Titled Album out July 28, 2017 via Prosthetic Records | Pre-Order Here

Canadian post-rock/doom four-piece LOVIATAR (pronounced low-vye-ah-tar) have teamed up with Metal Injection for another lyric video taken from their self-titled debut full-length, out worldwide on July 28, 2017 via Prosthetic Records. The track, “Discordant”, is the second in their three-part “Stygian Wyrm” opus and can be viewed here: http://www.metalinjection.net/av/new-music/loviatar-brings-their-infectious-grooves-with-discordant-stygian-wyrm-part-ii

The band comments on the track, “‘Discordant” is the second movement of the “Stygian Wyrm” trilogy, and an exercise in non-linear storytelling. The first part of the song focuses on a wealthy lord who sacrifices his lands, subjects and family to the death goddess for the promise of glory and purpose. The latter half of the song inserts itself into the narrative of “Nascent”, continuing the dragon’s story.”

LOVIATAR‘s new self-titled album features two monolithic tracks: the aforementioned “Stygian Wyrm” (broken down into three parts for the digital release) and “Blind Goddess of the Nine Plagues”. It will be available on all digital platforms, digipack CD and a limited edition gold and black swirl LP. Pre-orders are available here: http://smarturl.it/Loviatar

LOVIATAR borrow equally from the hazy gloom of My Bloody Valentine and the crushing riffs of Isis. Formed in 2010, LOVIATAR have independently released a series of singles and EPs, and have been tapped to support such acts as Red Fang, Skeletonwitch, and Blood Ceremony. With clearly sung vocals and equal parts somber and soaring, their thunderous elements of doom and post-metal contrast with hypnotic moments of atmospheric introspection to set them apart from others in the genre.
