Blackened/Dissonant Death Metal Trio MITHRIDATUM Releasing ‘Harrowing’

Featuring former members of Abhorrent and The Faceless, blackened/dissonant Death Metal trio MITHRIDATUM will release its debut album, Harrowing on CD, vinyl, and digital formats February 3, 2023 on Willowtip Records. 

The album’s first single and opening track, “Sojourn,” is available to stream on YouTube and Bandcamp.

In the band’s own words:

“Through mercurial waves beneath the moon’s mournful glow, a trinity of incarnate beings that embody Mithridatum have conjured forth the entity known as Harrowing, an auditory pilgrimage traversing a gloomscape leaden with dissonance, despondency, isolation, entropy… into the abyss.

The name Mithridatum refers to the practice of achieving immunity against poisoning through self-administered, sub-lethal doses. The allegory is inescapable in its illustration of the unrelenting immiseration all incarnate beings must endure, willing or unwilling.”
