Here are the titles of the songs in English (I'm sure Tamás will post some official English lyrics soon as well) 00:00 - Szarvas - Deer 05:40 - Köszöntsd a hajnalt - Welcome the dawn 10:05 - Gömböc - [A diminutive form of gömb ("sphere" in Hungarian). The word gömböc referred originally to a sausage-like food: seasoned pork filled in pig-stomach, similar to haggis. However, one well-known Hungarian folk tale, "A kis gömböc", is about an anthropomorphic gömböc that swallows several people whole -- every Hungarian who hears the word gömböc thinks of this tale in the first place. Also, Gömböc is the name of a convex three-dimensional homogeneous body that, when resting on a flat surface, has just one stable and one unstable point of equilibrium. Its existence was proven in 2006 by the Hungarian scientists Gábor Domokos and Péter Várkonyi, who named the object after the folk tale "character" mentioned above. (I think this might be an important connection to the song too, since geometry and science are some of the most important themes of Thy Catafalque.)] 15:10 - Az energiamegmaradás törvénye - The law of conservation of energy 22:02 - Móló - Pier 32:07 - A kupolaváros titka - The secret of the dome town/city 35:25 - Kiscsikó (Irénke dala) - Little foal (Song of Irénke) 39:12 - Piros-sárga - Red-yellow 44:18 - Vadak (Az átváltozás rítusai) - Savages/Fierce ones/Wildes (The rites of metamorphosis) [Could mean either wild animals or savage humans.] 56:45 - Zúzmara - Rime ice

[@Riot076]

Imádom hogy az album után hol nagyon volt az énekek és "folkiness" (nem tudom hogyan azt mondani magyarul),most elment Tamás ez az irányba eléggé különböző,hol az énekek ritkak vannak és a fogalmazások sokkal több nyersok. Nagyon szerettem Naiv de nem elvártam a Vadak-on ilyen a gyors változás hol ugyanabban az időben sok a részek vannak megtartva az előzők albumok. Gondolok hogy az énekekel olyan szűkös azok kapnak sokkal több jelentőséget. Ez az album nagyon meglepő,izgalmas és teljesen gyönyörű. Lengyelországból üdvözlések!

I've just recently discovered Thy Catafalque and they quickly became one of my three favourite artists!

Montizásaim alkalmával a búzamezők mellett, vagy a vashegyek között, esőben, szélben, napsütésben Thy Catafalque dalszövegeket, dalokat dúdolok folyamatosan. Nincs olyan szeglete a tájnak, amihez ne fűzödne Thy Catafalque dal. Kátai természet iránti bűvölete mindent visz. Mágus.

Tamás Kátai is David Lynch of music.... in short a GENIUS Tamas' special is at 11:00 AM EDT // 17:00 CEST on Thursday, June 24! Gimme radio

[@gaborgalda5404]

Elképesztő, nehezen találok rá szavakat. Eddig is abszolút kedvenc volt a TC, de ez az album ismét egy új szintre emelt mindent, egyik percben abszolút káosz, később pedig a legcsodásabb melódiák és legkellemesebb hangok, lehengerlő és katartikus minden egyes másodperce.

[@sebastianarmas897]

Tamás seems to have a plethora of ideas up his sleeve

[@Rose_in_Eden]

Tamas Katai is amazing!! He is a multi instrumentalist and breaks all the metal and music boundaries. In his music you can find Black Metal, heavy metal, thrash, Doom, folk, classic music, ambient and also some arabian derbake in this álbum. All fitting perfectly. This is insane! He never desappoint us !!!!

[@chassegardee7694]

Unbelievable. What a blend of sounds !!!

[@lucasanibaldi9791]

I recently knew the band with their last album. I'm glad i did, amazing music!

[@Little_Donut1]

I swear, Tamás takes you on an unknown journey in every album. One album could be black metal related, the next could be doom metal and then other lighter rock with so much ambience in it. Its so strange and yet satisfying.

[@mpowacht]

omg, so excited to listen to a new TC record. I wasn't even aware this was coming out. A few minutes in and I'm already sold. Tamás Kátai is a musical genius.

[@davidsterbak8214]

Every single LP from Tamas is a gem, keep rolling🤘

[@aehhh1finskiy]

Choosing the TC album for today is like opening a wardrobe and pick totally different clothes, which will always match each other and create a unique look. Seriously, in every TC album there are so different genres and approaches but they are always perceived as one "look"! Thanks for another great work, Thy Catafalque!

[@aehhh1finskiy]

also, waiting for lyrics to come hungarian is a beautiful language, and I like how it sounds especially in the title track. Would like to know what it is about :D

[@mokuscsik]

@@aehhh1finskiy the title of the album translates to "wild beasts". I let the music give you your own interpretation 🙂.

[@aehhh1finskiy]

@@mokuscsik I used google translate and it said "wilderness", but I will trust the native hungarian speaker

[@mokuscsik]

@@aehhh1finskiy yeah, "wilderness" refers to a place, whereas "vadak" refers to the animals that live in a forest for example

[@mokuscsik]

@@aehhh1finskiy also Tamás mentioned that a few of the tracks are about escaping, fleeing. I look forward to seeing the lyrics myself as well.

[@zagormud4323]

And when one thinks that Tamas couldn't go any further in pushing the boundaries and being one of the most poliedric musicians of our times, Zúzmara comes. Best album of 2021 and probably best Thy Catafalque's album so far. Thank you, really.

[@zsoltszilardkiss5515]

Zúzmara was originally released on his solo album "Erika szobája". It is also worth listening.

[@DimensionalCollapse]

My thoughts exactly. I was wondering whether it's a new composition or rework of the old track which I love pretty much. Now it's clear and it's brilliant.

It took me a while to get around to listening to this.. man this album has everything, I listened to all of it while doing some work and immediately had to repeat it because there's so much going on, I wanted to take it in again. To me it's his best album yet, and that's impressive for an artist to keep evolving and getting better 10 albums in, and still make an album where every song is different.

[@smazogzsmazlabs3436]

The description sums this up eccellently, perfect album, so relaxed and well timed. Their Zapor track from their 2004 album has a special place in my life; I wrote a computer game (still not complete after starting in 2009) - I put Zapor in my game and listened to it a lot beta testing; not commercial game - but hope it will be one day. All artists in game (over 100 of them) are credited 100% for their excellent music. Brill work Thy Catafalque, "mellowly mesmerizing metal", worth buying.

[@agentoranj5858]

I spent several hours trawling through The Algorithm's discography trying to find the drop at 1:28 before giving up and listening to other things until I finally rediscovered it here. Thy Catafalque and The Algorithm are both very highly energetic in their music.

[@blacksunlori]

This heaviness feels so good after "Naiv". I mean the heavier parts. After only 5 tracks I know that I will love this album.

[@jamesklingensmith7529]

I was all but resigned to never hearing Tamas really dial up the heaviness or write a long epic again, and was honestly fine with that because both Geometria and Naiv were really good takes on the softer style. And yet here we are, with an album that's the heaviest thing he's written since Meta and still finds time to be super folky in places like the preceding two albums as well. It's the absolute best of both worlds.
