VYR MUK – new EP in collaboration with other Ukrainian artists

VYR MUK released “Chants of the Tenebrous Depths” (Піснеспіви Морокових Глибин)

Ukrainian one man band Vyr Muk unveils his new full-length album, “Chants of the Tenebrous Depths” — a harrowing and introspective descent into the darker dimensions of existence. Blending the fury of black/death metal with philosophical depth and visceral emotion, this record embodies both chaos and contemplation in equal measure.

The album’s lyrical and conceptual themes explore the bleak facets of human nature — from uncontrolled aggression and the lust for domination to visions of an apocalyptic, decaying humanity. Deeply rooted in the tragic reality of war, the release also confronts the abduction and enslavement of Ukrainian children by russian occupiers, reflecting the inhuman brutality and moral collapse of an empire driven by greed and control.

Musically, “Chants of the Tenebrous Depths” merges the raw savagery of death metal with the ritualistic atmosphere of black metal, forming a sonic maelstrom where rage, despair, and transcendence coexist. Each of the nine songs carries its own identity, further enriched by eight guest appearances from members of the Ukrainian underground metal scene, giving every composition a distinct voice and texture.

This album is not just music — it’s a reflection of the chaos humanity lives in. It’s about the darkness we create ourselves.
