The International cosmic black/death metallers KHÔRA present the first track from their upcoming sinister journey, “ANANKE”. The album will be released on May 2 via Les Acteurs de l’Ombre Productions.
Khôra offer an atmospheric, sinister and orchestral journey. Initially a one-man band created in 2012 by Ole (ex-Autokrator) and author of a demo in 2016, the band took shape with the recruitment of Vasilis Kranos (Savaoth) on vocals and Lars E. Måløy (Dødheimsgard) on bass. The debut album “TIMAEUS” was released in 2020 (Soulseller Records).
Khôra returns in 2025 with a new album and a new line-up: Ole has surrounded himself with Frenchman Frédéric Gervais (Orakle, Cor Serpentii) on vocals, Swede Göran Setitus (ex-Setherial, Svartghast) on bass, and a new orchestrator in the person of Kjetil Ytterhus (Profane Burial, Haimad); he also includes other well-known guest artists from the metal scene: Rune ‘Blasphemer’ Eriksen (ex-Mayhem), Kristian Niemann (ex-Therion), Wolfgang Rothbauer (live Belphegor), André ‘Cosmocrator’ Søgnen (The Wretched End) and many more!
Mixed and mastered in France by Frédéric Gervais at Studio Henosis (In The Woods, Monolithe, Misanthrope, Pensées Nocturnes…), the successor of “TIMAEUS” is called “ANANKE” and will be released on May 2, 2025.
