Today, Thuringian folklorists Mosaic premiere the new video "Teufelsberg" at the Black Metal Promotion YouTube channel . The track is the third to be revealed from the band's highly anticipated new album, Heimatspuk , set for international release on April 22nd via Eisenwald . After their highly acclaimed avant-garde debut album Secret Ambrosian Fire , released by Eisenwald in 2019, Mosaic return to their black metal roots with Heimatspuk , delivering a primal symbiosis of atmospheric metal, mystical soundscapes, and traditional primal folk elements. See & hear Mosaic 's "Teufelsberg" video in its entirety HERE .
The album continues where its predecessor Secret Ambrosian Fire left off. The modern world lies in ruins and has consumed itself. Lyrically, it is permeated by various leitmotifs, such as darkness, sanguine, and forest mysticism - as well as the central elements of earth and air - whose attributes and symbolism characterize the album.
Reflection, contemplation, inner catharsis, and world escape are driven by heart and soul interwoven with moments of bittersweet melancholy and nostalgia. Once again, it is about old Thuringian traditions, poetry, and customs; about ghosts and demons; about the devil; and about the simple man who must not lose himself in the wild world. Likewise, it is about the power of nature as the ultimate shelter; about winter customs and ghostly witches. In addition, the album is strongly inspired by the works of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Georg Heym, Georg Trakl, and many other regional Thuringian poets. Dark primal folk melodies, sung in the regional dialect, lead up to wild atmospheric black metal anthems.
Unlike previous Mosaic releases, there are no guest appearances on this album. The album was written and recorded entirely by Martin van Valkenstijn at his House of Inkantation in Gotha, with musical assistance from Danijel Zambo (Walden, Skognatt) and mastered by Markus Stock (Empyrium, Sun of the Sleepless) at Klangschmiede Studio E in Mellrichstadt.
