August 30th saw Atmospheric Black Metal duo, IMPERIUM DEKADENZ, return with their critically acclaimed new album, When We Are Forgotten, on Napalm Records. On their sixth studio record, the band has unleashed a true stunner, taking the genre of the darkest art in metal on a total new level while storming the official Top 100 album charts from Germany to the United States! When We Are Forgotten dives deep into a complex cosmos made of anger, loneliness, melancholy and pure destruction. The band’s just released magnum opus not only convinces with a dynamic, energetic and organic production and sounds by no means polished, but is the same rough and dark as their home, the Black Forest, itself. In support of When We Are Forgotten, Imperium Dekadenz are now premiering an official music video, produced by Horaz himself, for the blistering to dark track Bis Ich Bin. Watch it here:

“The light shows you the world but the darkness shows you the truth about yourself.“ says the band. “Enter the heart of darkness through the veil of reason and the bonds of society until you have found your inner demon.”

Atmospheric Black Metal duo, IMPERIUM DEKADENZ, have revealed the hotly anticipated details of their sixth studio album titled When We Are Forgotten, due out on August 30th with Napalm Records!

Where most of us might think that everything has been said and done in a genre, Imperium Dekadenz boldly seek new horizons: The highly atmospheric and emotionally dense soundscapes of the band shun a simplistic tag like “Melodic Black Metal” and have done so for ages – as Horaz and Vespasian seize the moment with When We Are Forgotten and delve deep into a complex cosmos made of anger, loneliness, melancholy and pure destruction. Their upcoming record not only convinces with a dynamic, energetic and organic production and sounds by no means polished, but is the same rough and dark as their home, the Black Forest, itself. In contradiction to the album`s title: This is unforgettable!

Earlier this week, the band shared the artwork and tracklist of When We Are Forgotten, but today we finally also get to dive into their blistering soundwalls with a brand new video to the song Absenz Elysium!

Watch Imperium Dekadenz’ new video here:

“We are proud to unleash the video for our new song “Absenz Elysium”. The band comments. “The video, produced by Oliver König, was mainly shot at the Hornisgrinde, Black Forest, Germany – our home region and the perfect surrounding for our art.

When life is cut from existence, all attainments, burdens and perceptions are melt with the elysium. All the efforts in life to leave a footprint in space and time…vanished into oblivion – Absenz Elysium.”

When We Are Forgotten is set for release on August 30th in Deluxe Box sets, Vinyl, CD and Digital formats, be quick as the pre-sale has just started at THIS LOCATION!
