Following their critically acclaimed 2020 - s/t debut album, Swedish blackened thrash metallers Sarcator are gearing up for the release of the band's upcoming full-length record, entitled "Alkahest", which will be coming out on October 21st via Black Lion Records. After the band has already released the first the first two singles "Grave Maggot Future" and "Dreameater", the four-piece follows up today with the brand new track "The Long Lost".
 
The band comments:
"The Long Lost is an experimental song but at the same time a pretty simple one. The western inspiration for this song really shines through in the acoustic intro, middle-part and outro. We wanted those parts to sound like 'a man and his guitar doing his thing'. This song is the only one where we chose to tune down the guitars, which we thought the song demanded to show the full potential of its heaviness."
