SCHAMMASCH - THE MALDOROR CHANTS: OLD OCEAN (Official Full Album Stream)

[@jordancarey5460]

A goregues, immersive listen. Thank you Schammasch, for your hard work has paid off yet again.

[@javierrenteria3195]

"Image of the Infinite"... i cant explain the feeling that that songs transmit... such a incredible song and album... Schammasch you made an amazing album.. no words.. thanks!

[@pokemonmandude222]

I can't find the words to describe how much I love this record. This significant piece of art will stay with me.

[@Skakhti]

This is a mindblowing, transcendental album. It's the kind of music you don't just listen to, but rather experience it. The kind that sends shivers down your entire body. Truly, what a release.

[@regulo5427]

Every Schammasch album is a ritual experience.

[@michaelbranham817]

🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@IslandInteractions]

Absolutely wonderful - I listened to it four times today, while working on old fossils from the 'Swiss' seas 240 million years ago; a magical day in the dungeons!

[@RobertEnleed]

Absolutely trendy and no real RAWness like it should. A virus...like too many fans of this.

[@IslandInteractions]

@@RobertEnleed "like it should be" - according to the one & only trve gospel by...? Hint: This ain't 1st nor 2nd wave Scandi-black, sweetiepie 💋

[@bayernundmetal]

Unfassbar , Unglaublich , Atemberaubend , Wunderschön , Diese Band berührt mich jedesmal ein bisschen mehr , Diese Emotionen , Diese Melancholie , DAS ist meine Musik ♥

[@regulo5427]

A lot of anger and dramatism in the voices! I love them, they penetrate deep into my soul. Thanks Schammasch for this masterpiece.

[@Unreqvited]

I'm completely in love with this album right now, holy. 🖤

[@jamiequieta1092]

you know it's gonna be great when your favorite band uploads a 50 minute MMORPG log-in screen on KZbin

[@HevadeWe]

Only a few bands have me return frequently to ponder on lyrics and re-engage to find another perspective in the depth of their soundscapes, Schammasch manages to make me do at least one of those two with basically every song. I Hail you, Schammasch.

[@souvikbasu4665]

Schammasch has proven to be a constantly evolving entity, their Promethean spirit and philosophical quest growing ever more ambitious in its scope. New album portrayed expansive dynamics, exhilaratingly dramatic musical frontier, a fevered and transformative spiritual quest that sounds like it’s interrogating the surface of the sun. The band has reached a new, creative zenith. Here the band gets to explore their more experimental side, with ambiance, and drone influences being driven to the fore. This ably demonstrates that the band’s already wide-ranging repertoire reaches even further than previously shown. It’s a very accomplished achievement that’s delivered, performed and executed by professionals who have a true love for their art. Hails from India.

[@sereflower]

I am completely blown away by both the new opus and its premiere! Schammasch elegantly reinstate the concept of the Greek Tragedy with an omniscient narrator's vocal register unfolding MULTIFACETED and guitarwork captivating the listener like the embrace of inescapable tentacles. The Maldoror Chants: Old Ocean is a monumental work of art with layers of intricacies as dense as the depths it exalts! Schammasch, I salute you!

[@calamityleo]

And finally a great album came out once again from Schammasch... Thank you Schammasch... and thank you for your concert in Istanbul just recently...

[@Tzeetzah]

Both singles have promised us a monumental piece of music, and both pieces truly allowed us a glimpse into the artistic puzzle you've given us. Right now, I think I have listened to the whole creation at least five times already, from the opening, to the spectacular finish. Every note and sound are exactly where they should be, and together with your mesmerizing second rendition of Les chants de Maldoror, they make a generational album - the one that sets the standards, the one that pushes the boundaries, and leaves an unquestionable mark upon the musical world. I think I speak for the most of us when I say - thank you for sharing this captivating piece of art, it is truly a great pleasure to co-exist in the same timeline as Schammasch, and watch you create this in real time. 🖤

[@BABA888superbike]

Xmas is the 25th of October this year, not December. I am lucky enough, thanks to a "too fast released" by post services, to be one of the few receiving their presents before the official date. I'm listening it again and again since Monday... This is another great album from Schammasch. Thank you so much for it !

[@Ida-Adriana]

Wait das my bday 😫

[@paukuttaja6769]

Played this album 3 times over already, another masterpiece I cannot stop listening to!

[@Alex-ld6pb]

Schammasch is like a good book: it immediately immerses you into yourself and holds you to the final! ❤️

[@KennyWitte]

What an unbelievable album. I love how much you have expanded your sound, everything you come out with manages to hit the exact niche of everything I want to hear. Thank you for another incredible album.

[@valkiridr2583]

amazing....nothing to say much....10 out of 10 in every aspect!...especially I have to say the vinyl design that you made is just purification of art!....love you so much!

[@Alessandro9ds]

Wow... incredible, amazing and beautiful. Congratulations band and good luck.

[@Rapi089]

Definitely, you NEVER disappoint! Beauty, quality, and you always stay true to your vision! With each of your new albums, I am proud that you are Swiss! Thank you!

[@maldoror2007]

I Hail You, Schammasch! The gothic singing parts are just great, as the rest of this double Album is absolutely thrilling!

[@davidg1279]

A great statement of music Unique and powerful album as always I just like that you reference one triangle song lyrical: "because I would rejoice..."

[@Moshrav]

screw album of the year, this is album of the decade level material 🔥

[@DarkFire515]

Absolutely beautiful, profound album. Incredible work by the band!

[@bashshasheet8519]

There is a lot of great metal bands but Schammasch is something different. Musically they are amazing and when you read the lyrics, you can see how much effort they put into it. Those guys give me the chills

[@budgielover1431]

A majestic piece, one which will keep me company for many Novembers to follow.

[@TheAshHeritor]

Hail from the Netherlands! Maldoror Chants I was an underrated masterpiece. Somehow, I have the feeling this one is going to be even better. Anything with an Oceanic theme is an immediate sell for me. Can't wait for when the preorder goes live. I've set aside a few hours of the 25th to loop this a few times (and Gaerea's new album too).

[@TheAshHeritor]

Can confirm. Another masterpiece. Crystal Waves is absolutely sublime (along They Have Found Their Master and Image of the Infinite).

[@fizykasmutku5329]

Schammasch kolejny raz zapewnia doświadczenie wręcz mistyczne...Wspaniała podróż dziękuję Sercem pozdrawiam

[@regulo5427]

True.

[@AzanRidzuan]

Stoked! Hail from Malaysia! Fans since contradiction/triangle era! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

Fantastic album.

[@spirosvoutsinas2820]

The whole album is really a great inspiration !! Amazing work

[@mihaicapraru7955]

Amazing album! Didn't expected such quality. Greetings from Romania!

[@OlvinAlmendares-yv8em]

Every artist or group of artists who pay tribute to Los Cantos de Maldoror deserve greater respect. Hail, oh Count of Lautreamont.

[@doorknobx]

Another masterpiece of Schammasch. Unglaubich!

[@MatthewRoche]

I've been listening to this gem since my pre-order arrived. 10/10.

[@MultiSelmaselma]

I rarely listen to a full album, as I am more the type to really like one or two songs. Not with this one, barely 10 days released and it already has been listened to over and over again. Schammasch, as always, scratches that itch of a deeper yearning and desire to connect to our deeper selves. Breathtaking.

[@edwardayllon2371]

Vinyl copy arrived yesterday and gave it three spins right off the bat. Once again, an absolutely astounding offering. Wave after wave of atmosphere and power. Thank you for this incredible album!

[@detestor420]

Have listened to the new album 2x already. It dropped on my Apple Music at midnight. On my 3rd listen right now. Can’t wait to share this beautiful masterpiece with my friends. It’s truly something special

[@helenkeller9182]

Blown away by this masterpiece. I absolutely love the sheer emotion and power brought by the voice. Sometimes vocals are slightly separated from instrumental part, but not here. Here you feel it as a part of the very canvas of music, vital when it comes to conveying the atmosphere and idea of the album. P.S. While listening, I feel like i am literally drowning in the sound and do not want to come back. And it feels good and right. Amazing!

[@jonaymge]

Majestic album 🖤 Love to listen it start to finish. It never fails to make my day better. Thank you, Schammasch.

[@MensHominis]

Goddammit this is all I have hoped for. Your _Hermaphrodite_ made me read Lautréamont and I’ve been waiting for a new Maldoror chant of yours ever since. Seeing you interpret Lautréamont, I even believed to notice some of his influence elsewhere, especially on _In Dialogue with Death_ … no quotes, I think, just the type of poetry and the choice of words. Incredibly inspiring.

[@KardashevBand]

MOM! MOM! New SCHAMMASCH!!!!!

[@jeffersonp.duarte8490]

emotional and epic work, thank you Schammasch.

[@NaeemJigsaw]

Been listening to you guys since 2017! Such a masterpiece! Transcendental

[@nefariousvoid666]

On to the endless immersion. Every album has been wonderful, I’m sure this one will take a step above.

[@synthicate5030]

Wow! This is so amazing, that I´m out of words to describe my feelings for it. You got yourselves a new fan.

[@bigpotato_dono]

This is modern black metal This is the future of this genre

[@José_Adelson]

Que prazer ouvir a vocês. Álbum fantástico.

[@FilipeDasilva-tu5vx]

Schammasch é uma das bandas que mais me chamou atenção pela melodia e criatividade sendo uma opção absoluta de que não tem nada igual, só eles tem identidade própria sonora junto com a banda Bölzer e Ulcerate, sorte de quem conhece esses fantásticos músicos que sabem colocar emoções nas suas canções

[@Oakenbull]

Schammasch is ELITE 4. They Have Found Their Master (24:53) Jesus Fucking Christ this is good 45:46

[@I_Went_Outside]

Waiting to see ya Kilkim Žaibu

[@vojevodinass]

This is nice. Somehow I hear Diary of Dreams vibes, but metal. Looking forward to see the band live at Kilkim Žaibu festival-2025.

[@TheLight965]

Come to Seattle!!

[@6sentient]

Your greatest opus to date, no contest.

[@regulo5427]

I don't know if this album is their best, but I have to say that it's the album that's impacting me very strongly and deeply, and that's because of the voices. The vocal work is really wonderful. There's a lot of rage, fury and also drama, passion, suffering. And if that wasn't enough, there's the female voice of the great Kathrine Shepard. No, this is too much. I'm dying pleasantly. Thanks Schammasch, see you on the other side.

[@mcmlxxxviimcmxcvi8641]

I wish I'd had the money to preorder it... But with the money that I would have to spend on postage, I could buy the album a second time...

[@Schammasch]

Unfortunately we can't change prices of the Swiss postal service. But you can order it from local businesses of course.

[@mcmlxxxviimcmxcvi8641]

@@Schammasch I will. And I know it's not on you. It's just incredibly frustrating because I used to preorder every single time when one of my favourite bands put out a new record, but now I simply can't do it anymore, and it makes me sad... Thank you for understanding!

[@bennes8075]

Yeah and don't forget customs fees 🫤

[@SweatyBetties]

My wallet cannot take anymore orders, too many good metal albums have come out in recent years
