Description
Formed in 1999, French dark metallers BLISS OF FLESH have always been a very charismatic band. 2020 sees the release of their brand new album 'Tyrant' and is this time based on the concept of 'Le Discours de la Servitude Volontaire ' ( Voluntary Servitude Thesis) written by French philosopher Etienne de la Boetie. Published fully in 1576, it deals with the idea that although servitude may appear to be forced, and that obedience is imposed to the people, appearances are misleading and such servitude is in fact entirely voluntary.'Tyrant' shows BLISS OF FLESH at their more accomplished and intense hour in terms of production , songwriting and execution. The album also has no gaps between songs which makes the power reach new levels of addictive madness.BLISS OF FLESH 's new album 'Tyrant' album has been mixed and mastered at Vamacara studio in France by HK. (vamacarastudio.com), artwork was created by Hungarian artist Balazs Jacso . Inspired by medieval artists, he tried to imitate the techniques of this area, creating an infinity of details. The tyrant is faceless here. The three circles drawn around the frame symbolize the three elements of the submission: the whip for the oppressive strength, the crown for the symbol of power and the key for the illusional hope of freedom. It's like the holy trinity.The tyrant also wears broken chains, underlining his past as a servant himself. and the fact that we are most of the time our own tyrant, prisoner of a vicious circle. < Tyrants are only great because we are on our knees. > - Etienne de la Boetie -
