Black metal horde LanzerRath will make an epic contribution to a split EP coming this spring on Northern Spire Productions with the 20-minute journey into darkness titled “Nebular Collapse: The Dissolution of Order and Meaning.”
In 2018, founding members “I” and “II” created LanzerRath. A grassroots vision that pays homage to pioneers of black metal through four albums of pure energy and raw emotion. Now in 2024, LanzerRath brings us their magnum opus on cosmic nihilism.
Using their signature metal maelstrom to convey the insignificance of human life among the vast vacuum, ensorcelled by chaos, LanzerRath delivers it all. Compelling atmospherics, aggressive riffing, blast beats, and scathing vocals produce a uniquely dynamic soundscape. With themes of madness, misery, and mystery propagating their almost Lovecraftian universe. If that wasn’t enough, they’ve also paired up with the northern black metal act Shroud of Despondency to round out the split.
The split will be out on May 10 on CD and digital formats. Pre-order now at northernspire.bandcamp.com

LanzerRath was formed in 2018 by founding members “I” and “II”. Their initial vision of a grassroots DIY black metal band that captures the energy and emotion of purely amateur musicians, as in line with the pioneers of the genre, still persists to this day. Through LanzerRath’s first four full-length offerings, they honed their craft, wielding all the tools of the black metal arsenal to create a dynamic soundscape of compelling atmospherics, aggressive riffing, blast beats, and scathing vocals to convey their messages of darkness. Themes of madness, despair, mystery, and misery permeate through their aural universe and have laid the foundation for what’s to come.
