Cliff Scott’s solo project Inqvisitor unleashes its new single, »The Azoth Ritual«, taken from the upcoming debut album »Sublunar Attunement«. The album is set for release on November 20th via Vespertine Curse. The new track arrives alongside an official lyric video, available now on YouTube.

On »The Azoth Ritual«, mastermind Cliff Scott says:

“»The Azoth Ritual« means immersing oneself in alchemical experimentation, amidst muddy riffs, distorted vocals, and evocative lyrics.The song describes the esoteric practice of the seven rays of Azoth – the alchemical ritual of transformation and the union of opposites – as well as the beginning and the end that lead to inner growth.”

Inqvisitor is a original solo project by Cliff Scott (Meursault Omega, Sorrowtale), set in Milan (Italy), musically striking on occult themes and obscure rituals. His work combines heavy sounds into a unique whole for an aesthetic experience through distorted patterns and a noise soundscape. The debut album »Sublunar Attunement« explores the hidden chasm of humanity and of the persevering search of for its spiritual dimension in an alchemic journey through the universe’s primordial elements. It is an experimental and atmospheric sludge/post-metal work, steeped in a moonlight darkness.
