The Brooklyn black metal titans Liturgy have officially announced a new album entitled 93693. The band plans to drop the new album on March 24 next year via Thrill Jockey. To commemorate the announcement Liturgy has shared the title track of the upcoming project, “93696.”
In addition to the title track, Liturgy has also dropped the mini-project As the Blood of God Bursts the Veins of Time, a short album acting as a precursor to the longer 93696. Three of the four tracks listed on As The Blood of God consist of numbers chopped from the upcoming project’s title: “93,” “36” and “696,” intending to divide the title track into three separate movements. The mini-album has been made digitally available to stream and download here. See the mini-album’s tracklisting below.
As the Blood of God Bursts the Veins of Time Tracklist
1. 93
2. 36

As if the dropping of a mini-album was not enough activity for one day, Liturgy have taken it upon themselves to drop a near 15 minute long goliath of a title-track in “93696.” Throughout the massive, intense and complex track, Liturgy introduces the sounds of counterpoint melodies, polyrhythmic rhythms, ethereal samples and sounds, as well as various electronic effects to create a truly unique journey of a song.
