Tamás Kátai has a vision that extends far beyond Hungary. While only intended as a studio project, over the past two decades, Thy Catafalque has grown into a lively collaboration that brings together other prominent musicians from inside and outside his country's metal scene. With each album, he's pushed the boundaries of extreme metal, bringing the world's most vile art form into conversation with the avant-garde.
His upcoming twelfth album is Thy Catafalque's most expansive release yet. XII features many familiar faces from the project's wide discography. Dreamy synths swirl amidst riffs that are both catchy and crushing. Traditional acoustic and classical instruments accompany production that's slightly more modern. But A gyönyörű álmok ezután jönnek also ties back to Kátai's past and the history of his home country.
"I felt it was time to move in a different direction, whatever that direction might be, but A gyönyörű álmok ezután jönnek still possesses the dreaminess that I've always associated with Thy Catafalque", Kátai says. "There is a tinge of nostalgia, a tinge of sadness, a tinge of hope, a tinge of beauty and still a generous amount of metal".
XII: A gyönyörű álmok ezután jönnek comes out November 15, 2024 on Season of Mist.
