The Great Old Ones News

In a solitary homage to the divine elegance and electronic mysticism of Jean-Michel Jarre, the harbingers of Lovecraftian nightmares breathe new life into his legendary “Second Rendez-Vous.”

Cast away the light, descend into the chasms of cosmic dread, and behold the latest opus from the alchemical minds of THE GREAT OLD ONES. The Bordeaux-based harbingers of Lovecraftian black metal unveil their new and terrifying masterpiece, Kadath, capturing the essence of H.P. Lovecraft’s “The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath.” Prepare to traverse landscapes both magnificent and horrific, guided only by the arcane melodies forged in the dark heart of the Dreamlands. For the first time, THE GREAT OLD ONES step aside from the unfathomable depths of the Cthulhu mythos to delve into Lovecraft’s Dream Cycle. Kadath draws the listener into the dream-haunted world of Randolph Carter, who is lured by visions of a forbidden city. As Carter navigates the perilous Dreamlands, escaping the clutches of the crawling chaos and otherworldly perils, he embarks upon a quest fraught with both wonder and doom. Comprising seven tracks of epic, immersive intensity, Kadath is an unholy journey into unfathomable realms. The impeccable production by Francis Caste at Studio Sainte-Marthe envelops the listener in an atmosphere of dread and transcendence. Each composition is a carefully wrought chaos of melodies and violent ferocity, promising an experience both brutal and beautiful. ‘Kadath’ is out this Friday, January 24th, through Season of Mist. ➤ Pre-order & Pre-save the album here: https://orcd.co/tgookadath

Lovecraft, this single guides listeners through the cryptic Dream-Quest of Randolph Carter as he ventures into realms where nightmares dwell and the forbidden whispers of the ancient gods echo.

Awaken, dear connoisseurs of cosmic horrors and celestial melodies.
