"Lux Mundi"
S A M A E L have chosen "Lux Mundi" (which translate in English as "Light of the World") as title for their upcoming album due to be released on spring 2011.

The album, which took almost three years to be completed, was recorded this summer after the band spend a few days in Germany on pre-production with Waldemar Sorychta. The recording took place on two different locations in Switzerland and the mix has been done by extreme metal specialist Russ Russell in Kettering (England)

"Lux Mundi" will consist of 10 to 12 new songs including first single "Antigod" and live monster "Soul Invictus"

wiss dark metallers S A M A E L issued a third video of the making of forthcoming album "Lux Mundi", to be released on May 3rd in North America. You can watch it on YouTube (Ver video)

"Lux Mundi" will be available as an exclusive 2CD set including the "Antigod" EP, which was previously available only as digital download in North America!

Frontman Vorph commented on all 12 songs on the album.

Luxferre
Opening track of the album to set the tone musically and lyrically... It was originally called "More Light!" a reference to "Mehr Licht!" which is believed to be the last words pronounced by German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe on his dying bed.

Let my People Be!
Walking the fine line between anarchy and society while prophesying about a new era. Middle tempo track with a haunting chorus.

Of War
Musically heavy as heavy can be. This is the second time S A M A E L wrote a complete song on the subject of war. "Valkyries' New Ride" (on the "Solar Soul" album) was more or less directly inspired by the ongoing war in Iraq while "Of War" deals with the topic in a general sense.

Antigod
The title track of the EP released on last November 19th. It shows the new album's direction and gives a taste of what's about to come. Lyrically the song is a firm stand against any kind of religion.

For a Thousand Years
Heavy middle tempo track which questions our view on immortality. This is actually the full orchestration of the song "Ten Thousand Years" which appears on the "Antigod" EP.

The Shadow of the Sword
The Quran says "the gates of Paradise are under the shadows of the swords"? This is yet another song against religion and more particularly against monotheist religions, an up-tempo aggressive track with some reminiscence of "Rain" (from the "Passage" album) as producer Waldemar Sorychta noticed.

In the Deep
One of the most experimental songs on the album, tribal rhythms with a very distinctive guitar riff. It is a trip in the depths of S A M A E L 's soul.

Mother Night
Probably the heaviest ballad ever written? After the power ballads, the progressive ones, the time is right for some ultra heaviness in that genre?

Pagan Trance
Part of the song existed for a long time but we had never found a way to complete it until today. It's a ¾ song just as "Antigod" but it is more open and somehow more mellow. The lyrics are about connections between eternal feminine and nature.

In Gold we Trust
Money, material possessions and success this is the god's trinity to which most lives are sacrificed in the today's world. An up-tempo track with a bombastic chorus.

Soul Invictus
(roughly translate in English as Invincible Soul) is a word play with the Sol Invictus phrase used by the Romans. The song has been played on the latest European tour and it soon turned up to be one of the highlight of the set becoming a crowd anthem on the spot.

The Truth Is Marching on
The quest for ultimate truth could be a chimera, but it takes a ride on this road to make a man. Musically the song starts with a blast beat faster than anything S A M A E L ever played before - the tension is kept throughout the track and explodes again on few occasions.

Ya falta cada vez menossssss!!!!!

NUEVOOOO Y ACTUALIZADOOOOOO!!!!!

Swiss dark metallers S A M A E L posted a brand new song online. "In the Deep" is taken from upcoming album "Lux Mundi", to be released in North America on May 3rd. Download the song for free here!



Frontman Vorph made the following comment on "Lux Mundi": "We've stuffed this album with so many things that it feels like we've created a black hole. We might have come full circle after "Solar Soul" and "Above" and the option for us was to leave S A M A E L behind or to add a new layer to our legacy. We went for the second option. With "Lux Mundi" we've put tar on our path and now we'll be able to move further?"

"'Lux Mundi' started to take shape in 2007", adds Xy. "For almost three years, we have reworked those songs, changed things to bring them to maturity before entering the pre-production process in 2010. This album can be seen as the achievement of what we started with "Ceremony of Opposites" and "Passage" or as a new start for S A M A E L."

"Lux Mundi" will be released as an exclusive 2CD digipak including the "Antigod" EP, which was previously available only as digital download in North America!
