“The video was taken from an old videotape found in an abandoned building of unknown authorship. The song was written under the influence of what was seen on the film; it’s about the dark sides of our personalities, about the attempt to acknowledge and accept our Shadow. It’s also a manifesto of misanthropy, a hatred for humanity, which sometimes appears to be a mistake of nature.”
»Stuma«, a five-track journey meticulously crafted by the talented minds behind Azimut. With a runtime of 45 minutes, this album is a sonic tapestry woven from the threads of post-metal, sludge, and black metal, delivering an experience that defies convention and elevates the senses.
