Khemmis is now streaming their raging new single "Sigil," whose sound feels like it's the bridge between Hunted and Desolation. The single is a part of the ongoing Decibel Flexi series, and is not part of the upcoming Khemmis record Deceiver.
"'Sigil' is a d-beat-driven rager that we wrote and recorded during the Deceiver sessions with Dave Otero. It combines hallmarks of the 'Khemmis sound’ – harmonized riffs, pounding drums, and soaring vocal melodies punctuated with vicious screams – with a decidedly bleaker, more aggressive approach to our signature style of doomed heavy metal.
"When Decibel approached us about contributing a new song to their Flexi series, we knew that 'Sigil' was the perfect candidate and that it required a powerful visual companion piece. Enter our friend Daniel Warren Johnson (Murder Falcon, Wonder Woman: Dead Earth) whose monochromatic illustration of otherworldly horror perfectly captured the apocalyptic heart of the song."
