I decided to pay homage to two of my favourite tracks from Lychgate’s “Precipice” and record some ‘live in a studio’ performances.
First up is “Anagnorisis”, one of the more demented compositions from the album. Link to full vid in bio. Stay tuned for the next one!
Thanks to Topher @watchmakerstudios for the great job filming and editing.

It is fair to say that Lychgate was never, nor is, a symphonic kind of band. However, the track “Anagnorisis” was an exception in this regard. Originally written for strings, it was later adapted for use on 'Precipice'.
Note that there are differences, including the omission of two sections and in the number of repetitions of certain parts. Despite this, the work remains clearly recognisable, and we have uploaded it for those who may find it interesting.

"LYCHGATE has released the best album of their career!" (Angry Metal Guy)
Five years after the acclaimed "Also sprach Futura" EP and seven years after their last full-length, UK avant-Death/Black Metal collective LYCHGATE return with their new album "Precipice", now officially released. Expanding the band's dystopian avant-prog-Death language, the album unfolds with near-mechanical precision and a sustained, deeply unsettling atmosphere.

UK Avantgarde Black/Death Metal luminaries LYCHGATE return on December 19th with a stunning 4th album. "Precipice" is progressive Extreme Metal plummeting inside a black hole: scorching, twisted and transfixing.
Mixing & mastering: Greg Chandler at Priory Studios
Cover artwork: Nadiia Skidan
As an initiation into this mind-manglingly intense work, LYCHGATE unveil a key piece as first song. 'Hive of Parasites' delivers an unsettling blend of grandeur and decay, conceptually based on E.M. Forster's "The Machine Stops" (1909).
