Nach langen sieben Jahren haben die UK Symphonic Black Metal Größen von HECATE ENTHRONED ihren ersten neuen Song veröffentlicht. `Gallery of Rotting Portraits` is auch der erste Song des nächsten Longplayers “ The Corpse of a Titan, A Lament Long Buried“, der am 29. Mai aufschlagen soll.
Bassmann Dylan Hughes erklärt:
„The single takes its name from the morbid preservation of the peat bogs, where bodies like the Lindow Man have rested for centuries. ‘A Gallery of Rotting Portraits’ uses these ‚pagan sacrifices‘ as a metaphor for obsolete devotion. It captures the jarring disconnect of unearthing a ritualized past only to find it stripped of its power. The song confronts the cold reality that while the bodies remain, the spirits and superstitions that put them there have long since rotted away, leaving us in a world devoid of its ancient magic.“
