MABB v6.6.6

A little over five years ago, Deathspell Omega returned from Brittany after recording The Furnaces of Palingenesia.

Afterwards, the band started rehearsing to prepare for a series of concerts. Line-up complications eventually doomed the attempt at performing this particular album live.

The following video of the song The Fires of Frustration is an internal working document – the kind produced when musicians are scattered across a continent. The recording device was a smartphone.

While the idea of concerts for Furnaces is now water under the bridge, we can at least divulge a fraction of what we were working on. The performance itself reflects the early phase of a series of rehearsals and, as such, is not flawless.

very cool, to be honest i'm kinda good with the idea of them remaining a studio band though. i think it was a fine performance but, however silly and insubstantial it might be, there's a certain element of mystique that's appealed to me that i think would necessarily be spoiled by a live setting.

I agree. But it would depend on how they would perform live. Then again, we already have Mgła and enough other masked bands.

they don't seem very frustrated
