Emerging atmospheric black/epic doom metal solo project DIVINE SOVEREIGN has unleashed the lyric video for “The Absolution”, the latest track from the upcoming album Autaxia Chronicles: Dawn of a New Age, set for release on May 9, 2025, via Wormholedeath.

The Painful Legacy of Autaxia

The history of Autaxia is etched with suffering. We prayed to the heavens, but the skies remained silent. We served our masters, though they stripped us of hope. Centuries of torment have taught us a harsh truth: to believe in no one but yourself.

“The Absolution” is the third track from Autaxia Chronicles: Dawn of a New Age and delves into the theme of resistance driven by religious fervor. It tells the tale of a species enslaved for generations, only to rise through the creation of a new faith—a faith that unites them against their oppressors. However, this newfound zeal comes with a stark warning: while fanaticism can unify, it often becomes the first chapter of a new kind of servitude.

Divine Sovereign’s immersive compositions bring this gripping concept to life, fusing atmospheric black metal, epic doom, and blackgaze elements into a cinematic soundscape of despair, rebellion, and awakening.

About Divine Sovereign

Founded in 2023 by multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Cezary Rochnowski, Divine Sovereign draws inspiration from the likes of Ethereal Shroud, Panopticon, and Atlantean Kodex. The project crafts epic, narrative-driven compositions set in the world of Autaxia, a planet where advanced beings unearth the remnants of a once-thriving civilization. Through intricate songwriting and atmospheric intensity, Divine Sovereign explores the duality of faith—its power to liberate and its potential to enslave.

Polish atmospheric black/epic doom metal project Divine Sovereign, the brainchild of visionary musician Cezary Rochnowski, announces a groundbreaking record deal with Wormholedeath Records. The debut album “Dawn Of A New Age” is set to transport listeners to the mysterious planet Autaxia on May 9, 2025.

Divine Sovereign emerged in 2023 with a mission to craft monumental compositions. Inspired by luminaries such as Ethereal Shroud, Panopticon, Gallowbraid, and Atlantean Kodex, Rochnowski’s sonic landscapes combine crushing doom, soaring atmospheres, and intricate black gaze textures.

The album invites listeners to explore Autaxia, an enigmatic planet where the remnants of a tragically fallen civilization reveal a haunting tale. Dawn of a New Age delves into the dual nature of religious zeal—both as a unifying force and as a catalyst for societal collapse.

The story unfolds through a cinematic lens: a research vessel lands on a desolate world and uncovers the ruins of Autaxia. Archival fragments recount the rise and catastrophic fall of a once-great society consumed by religious extremism. Each track serves as a chilling archaeological excavation, peeling back layers of historical trauma and philosophical depth.

‘Dawn Of A New Age’ isn’t just an album – it’s an existential expedition into the heart of human belief systems. Divine Sovereign examines how spiritual passion can simultaneously inspire remarkable resilience and trigger devastating societal collapse.

Tracklist:

1. The Ruins Of Autaxia
