THY CATAFALQUE Announce New Album, Stream New Track

THY CATAFALQUE, the wildly progressive studio project of Tamás Kátai, have announced the release of their forthcoming new album, ‘Geometria’. The album, another masterwork of rock infused with traditional folk influences and experimental music will be released in limited edition formats on May 4. Pre-orders for the album are available at the Season of Mist E-Shop.

THY CATAFALQUE are streaming a stunning new track off ‘Geometria’. The track titled “Szamojéd Freskó” is an adventurous take on metal, progressive rock, and more and is streaming here.

Regarding the album, THY CATAFALQUE mastermind Tamás Kátai comments, “THY CATAFALQUE started its course 20 years ago. This is the eighth album and the fourth on Season of Mist. Bands rarely create their magnum opus after so many years and I do not claim that either. ‘Geometria’ however is playful, adventurous, dreamy, and free – probably the closest to ‘Róka Hasa Rádió’ in this sense. Less metal, more violins, electronica, occasional saxophone, trumpet, and fretless bass that are completed with the vocals of Martina Veronika Horváth (NULAH, NIBURTA) and Gyula Vasvári (PERIHELION) besides myself. I enjoyed the recordings immensely: full of excitement and pure adventure. This song, ‘Szamojéd Freskó’, which translates as ‘Samoyedic Fresco’ sits more on the obscure side of the spectrum. It’s basically a mythical narrative of physical decomposition.”
