German black / death cult Ch’ahom offer upon the altar of sacrifice their second album ‘Anthropic Rites of Sublimation’, a concept album set in a fictional world inspired by the rituals, art and architecture of pre-Hispanic cultures.
Continuing where their ‘Ts’ono’ot’ EP ended, its story unfolds around a cenote of impossible dimensions whose cosmic call draws the lost and uncertain toward self-sacrifice. Four civilizations rise along its edge, each developing its own rites, hierarchies and monuments to transform the abyss’s fatal summons into a foundation for collective existence.
Ch’ahom give this imagined world form through cavernous death metal, bestial eruptions and feverishly progressive structures. Savage riffing coils through suffocating chambers of rhythmic conjuration while ancient instrumentation emerges from the tumult like echoes inside a buried temple. ‘Anthropic ‘Rites of Sublimation’ moves like the cenote itself, drawing the listener inward through an ecstatic and ever-deepening sense of the unknown.
Inspired by a deliberately literal interpretation of the death drive and its sublimation, Ch’ahom explore culture as a response to an irresistible desire for self-erasure. Mutilation, vicarious sacrifice, enslavement and willing surrender become the foundations of competing societies awaiting the cenote’s periodic opening. Ch’ahom transform this dark fiction into an immense ritual of sound, portraying humanity through its terrifying ingenuity: creating faith, beauty and entire civilizations upon the edge of annihilation.
For fans of Timeghoul, Demilich, Profanatica, Tzompantli, Genocide Shrines, Gorguts, Volahn’.
