Minsk pretty infrequently drops new material, so when they do you best pay attention. The Illinois-based doom unit just released their new song "The Chalice And The Dagger" off their upcoming split with Zatokrev and it's exactly the right amount of melodic and foreboding.
Here's what Minsk had to say to Decibel about the track.
“‘The Chalice And The Dagger’ is a snapshot into the world of paradox. Life is a disgusting grind, yet our experience vibrates with ecstasy and potentiality. This song hopes to present the hymn of the out-lier; with the ragged beauty of navigating through the margins of existence. Interpretation is invalid without context, and this song hopes to touch on the uncharted, and the established. It sits within the entirety of BIGOD as one section of four, with all parts necessary to the whole.”
Minsk & Zatokrev will drop Bigod on October 5.
