THE BEAST

On April 8, 2024, the esoteric metal band NECHT, known for their allegiance to the ancient B'ahn cult of the prehistoric Enkari civilization, made a significant move by releasing their latest single, “Into Bondage Born.” This release coincides with the solar eclipse visible across North America, a celestial event of profound significance to their beliefs.

NECHT's members, including Zenith Maharg and his Ascendants Vlasfimos, Zhargor, and Aemoh, are modern-day interpreters of the Enkari's ancient lore. They see the solar eclipse not just as a natural phenomenon but as a cosmic battle, where the dragon Karnifor, the harbinger of apocalypse, obscures the light of their revered sun god, B’ahn. To the Enkari, such events were seen as ominous, signifying the potential for catastrophic change.

The single “Into Bondage Born” serves as a powerful reflection of this philosophy. NECHT describes the track as a sermon that reverberates with the themes of perpetual conflict and devotion characterizing the life of the Lashmiri warriors, the martial followers of B’ahn. Through their music, NECHT aims to evoke the spirit of these ancient warriors who were, as per their belief, born into bondage—a lifetime commitment to warfare and the worship of B’ahn.

This track is part of the upcoming album, “The Prophecy of Karnifor,” scheduled for release on May 17, 2024. This album promises to delve deeper into the mythos of the Enkari and the prophecies surrounding Karnifor. The single itself is a blend of black metal’s solemn intensity and a melancholic depth that speaks to the historical weight of the Enkari's endless wars.

NECHT’s journey began amid the global upheaval of the 2022 pandemic, when Zenith Maharg discovered the “Translating the Enkari-B’ahn Scrolls: Words from the People of the End Times.” This discovery, penned by Dr. Birgitta Olsson and based on 19th-century explorations, propelled Maharg and his collaborators to form the band and the Temple of NECHT, aiming to resurrect and honor the ancient rites and beliefs of the Enkari.

Since then, NECHT has been active in bringing their interpretations of ancient texts to life through music and public rituals, gaining an ever-expanding following. Their performances are not just concerts but are intended as ritualistic gatherings, where attendees experience the mythical and historical narratives of the Enkari.

“Into Bondage Born” is available across digital platforms and is part of a larger narrative that NECHT will explore in their full-length release. The band invites listeners to view the single as an offering to B’ahn and to immerse themselves in the storied past of a civilization obsessed with cosmic and terrestrial wars.

Fans and new listeners alike can access the single and prepare for the upcoming album through NECHT’s digital platforms, including Bandcamp, Spotify, and YouTube, where further insights into their music and philosophy await.

For those intrigued by the blend of ancient mythology and modern music, NECHT offers a unique auditory and spiritual journey, tying the mystery of the past with the artistry of the present.
