Since their surprise return from the aether with 2024’s Chariot Sun Blazing, the band has expanded on their emotive and fierce form of metal with more of a unique focus on instrumentation by way of layering and subtle orchestrations. Skagos has become a more powerful band that is even more in touch with their surroundings and emotional maturity as people AND songwriters. With Stricken, we hear first hand just how deep this band can go as they free range from quieter passages, to their always embroiled lashings of blackness. Bindrune Recordings is endlessly proud to help bring this new chapter of the band to those who are still inclined to wander.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBand Bio:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConceived on the verdant shores of Vancouver Island in 2007, Skagos carved a unique niche for themselves in the emerging Cascadian Black Metal movement. With the release of their first two full lengths, Ást and Anarchic, alongside several splits, EPs and demos, Skagos built a catalogue braiding the threads of Black Metal, Folk and Post-Rock, eschewing the misanthropy of their contemporaries and positioning themselves ferociously on the side of Life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAfter an 11 year hiatus, within which sole members Isaac Symonds and Ray Hawes continued to establish their unique musical identities in the world, Skagos reunited to deliver Chariot Sun Blazing, unannounced, on an unsuspecting and long hungering fan base. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWith their fourth full-length, Stricken, Skagos aims to craft a ladder from the aching of the wild heart and drop it down into the dust of our forsaken age, bridging the howling expanse between Grief and Awe. Sonically diverse, utilizing fury and wonder in equal parts, Skagos allows true inspiration to supersede the conventions of genre.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bindrune Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63507893354577,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/5212\/files\/StrickencoverSmallercopy.jpg?v=1794512059","url":"https:\/\/shop.bindrunerecordings.com\/products\/skagos-stricken-cd-pre-order","provider":"The Bindrune Webshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
