NECRONAUTICAL Make Title Track Of New Album ‘Apotheosis’ Available For Streaming
North-West England-based black metal band Necronautical have made the title track of the group’s forthcoming album Apotheosis available for streaming via YouTube, which can be accessed below.
The band commented: “We are pleased to present the title track from our new album, Apotheosis. When we arranged the album, we treated it’s central song as the climax of its musical and lyrical concept. The lyrics are a reflection on the nature of mortality, and on the journey of a thought from its origin into a belief.
“The word ‘Apotheosis’ means the highest point of something’s development, or it’s elevation to divine status. To reflect this in the music, the song was constructed to elevate the epic and melancholic melody of it’s central riff, which serves as the musical apex of this record. We hope this track will take you on a grimly euphoric journey!”
Necronautical issue third full-length studio album Apotheosis on August 30th, 2019 through Candlelight Records.
Apotheosis details a melancholic journey through an empty and brutal existence, taking inspiration from the works of Friedrich Nietzsche, Chuck Palanuik and Neil Gaiman.

Cover artwork was created by David Thiérrée.
