{"product_id":"thy-catafalque-xiii-sarga-erdo-double-lp-gatefold","title":"Thy Catafalque - XIII: Sárga Erdo - DOUBLE LP GATEFOLD","description":"\u003cp\u003eTHY CATAFALQUE is the solo-helmed Hungarian avant-garde metal project of Tamás Kátai, running since 1998 and now a two-time Fonogram (Hungarian Grammy) winner. What began as a studio-only outlet has grown, over the past few years, into a full international touring act with festival slots across Europe and Latin America.\u003cbr\u003e'XIII: Sárga erdo' is THY CATAFALQUE's thirteenth album, and unlike its predecessors it carries no single narrative thread: the twelve tracks move instead through what plays like a wandering across old ground, touching on loss, distance, memory and disappearance without ever settling on one story. The record marks a real shift in how it's built: this is the first time THY CATAFALQUE has used a live drummer rather than programmed rhythm, and while the cast is enormous - thirty-four musicians plus a twenty-voice male choir - the folk and classical textures that once flooded every corner of a song (piano, strings, brass, reed, sitar, kamancheh, zither) are used here with real discipline, brought in only when a track calls for them. The result sits closer to the bone than the maximalism of the last record, heavier in restraint than in volume, and it still finds room for a fictitious folk song built for a vanished people on the Volga, an incineration metaphor turned into the album's heaviest cut, and an opener that reads like a farewell letter.\u003cbr\u003eGábor Vári returns behind the desk for a second record running, keeping the production language consistent even as the arrangements pull back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor fans of IHSAHN, DØDHEIMSGARD, MUZSIKÁS.\u003cbr\u003eCover photography by Laszlo Horvath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003eSide A: Búcsú a piros madártól  \/ Ég-anyám, föld-apám \/ Dunnák alatt kék mezo\u003cbr\u003eSide B: Szitaköto \/ Suhamló éji fák \/ Puszta \/ Sirató\u003cbr\u003eSide C: Cseremisz \/ Sárga erdo\u003cbr\u003eSide D: Tömbök \/ Kút vizén nap forog \/ 87 tavasz, 87 osz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"hidden\"\u003eThis item is available for pre-order.
