With NIBIRU‘s forthcoming album “Salbrox” edging ever closer to release, we now invite you to behold the rite’s first aural and visual offering. Set to the track ‘EXARP’ – meaning ‘Spirit of Air’ in Enochian magick – the video calls you into Nibiru‘s alchemic sphere of scrying and manifesting visions, intent and psychic wisdom.  The irresistibly hypnotic artwork and visuals are courtesy of the ever magnificent VALNOIR | METASTAZIS with video direction by Marco Testa. Stream and watch ‘Exarp’ below:

Titled Salbrox, meaning ‘Sulfur’ in the Enochian language of which the band profess, the rite is a cataclysmic psychic journey of visionary magick, elemental prophecies and esoteric supernormality. Tribal percussion, evocative mantras and hypnotic drones imbued with the band’s amalgamation of black metal, doom metal and psychedelic textures formulates a fascinating, idiosyncratic art. Vocals harbour a possessed and rasping quality that surely summon spectres far beyond our comprehensible realm, bringing forth a divination of the self.

Conceptually and spiritually, Salbrox is inspired by the continuous re-adjustment between disharmony and balance. Salbrox aims, via mysterious and enigmatic practices that reflect an ouroboros quality of death and rebirth, to explore the transmutation and regeneration of the human being that occurs at every level – spirit, soul and corporeality.

In turn, the alchemical practice of ‘Solve et Coagula’ – meaning to dissolve and coagulate – is the foundation of Salbrox. This ethos points towards the liberation of the human from impurities and the destruction of the Ego, permitting an alternative self-awareness and synthesis. The rite is thus a magick process that follows the key principles of alchemy, merging deep, ancestral knowledge into sound voyages that awaken the darkest and most hidden chords of consciousness.

Salbrox was recorded live and mixed at Music Lab Studio, Italy by Emiliano Pilloni and mastered at Audiosiege by Brad Boatright. Produced by Nibiru.
