Cover Art & First Two Video Installments from Ufomammut’s Oro: Opus Alter

August 6, 2012 by A.S. Van Dorston

The cover art for Ufomammut’s second installment of their epic Oro piece, Oro: Opus Alter, which is to be released on 17 September on Neurot Recordings. As usual, it’s by the talented Malleus art collective.

The full tracklisting:

1. Oroborus
2. Luxon
3. Sulphurdew
4. Sublime
5. Deityrant
The first two video installments:

As with all previous Ufomammut albums, the concepts behind ORO are expansive and multi-faceted, mutating the Italian palindrome which translates to “gold” with the Latin translation of “I prey.” ORO explores the concept of knowledge and its power; the magical stream controlled by the human mind to gain control of every single particle of the world surrounding us. ORO is the alchemical process to transform the human fears into pure essence; into Gold. Although ORO‘s two chapters will be released months apart from each other, they must be considered as a single track in which the musical themes and the sounds appear and reappear, mutate and evolve, progressively culminating in the crushing final movement. ORO is an alchemic laboratory in which substances are flowing, dividing and blending themselves in ten increments from the alembics and stills, culminating into the creation of Gold.

Opus Alter is going to fulfil and widen the perspective of the new work of Ufomammut. Starting where Opus Primum ended, Opus Alter evolves deeper into devastatingly powerful new territory, where chaos is metamorphosed by cacophonous sound, until the final notes resonate, knowledge is forged and Ufomammut strike gold.

Stay tuned for more details regarding the release and tour are announced. Meanwhile check out the following confirmed dates so far. Still awaiting their triumphant U.S. tour. Hopefully some dates will appear in November?
