KHORS: New Track Stream Available Via Decibel's Deciblog

The mighty Deciblog is currently streaming "Asgard's Shining," the third track fromKHORS' latest full-length, Return To Abandoned, released via Paragon Records. On their fourth long player, the Ukrainian black metal horde yield the harsher, brooding sounds of earlier works whilst  mixing in the melancholy and atmosphere of 2008's unsung blackened gem, Mysticism.  Said bassist Khorus of the tune,  "The main theme of 'Asgard's Shining' is the attraction of ancient mythical kingdom the Asgard; its majesty and power." 

Check out "Asgard's Shining" HERE.

"One gets the impression that the members of KHORS were driven by forces beyond their control and were unable to alter or impede the writing process until said forces decided the album was complete." -- Blabbermouth

"Khors is one of the better prospects on the atmospheric black metal front in recent memory. Because they operate without the mindless and oft-overbearing sense of predominance and overt “epic-ness” their contemporaries do, Khors should easily be able to build upon Return to Abandoned. There’s a lot to digest here, and there’s something for everyone. Even you, the ever-hard-to-please BM basement dweller." -- Blistering

"If you are looking for a heavyset dose of blackened, progressive heathenism you will find no fault here." -- Metal Team UK

AOL Noisecreep is currently streaming "Sacrament Of Buyan," the eighth  track from KHORS' latest full-length, Return To Abandoned, released last month via Paragon Records. On their fourth long player, the Ukrainian black metal horde yield the harsher, brooding sounds of earlier works whilst  mixing in the melancholy and atmosphere of 2008's unsung blackened gem, Mysticism.  "Sacrament Of Buyan," is based in Slavic mythology -- Buyan is reportedly the only place where you'll find "Koschei the Deathless" soul buried inside a needle inserted into an egg that lurks in a magical oak tree.

KHORS: Ukrainian Black Metal Horde Unleash New Full-Length

Paragon Records is proud to announce the release of Return To Abandoned, the long-awaited new full-length from Ukrainian black metal horde KHORS. On Return To Abandoned KHORS yield harsher, brooding sounds of their earlier work whilst  mixing in the melancholy and spacious atmosphere of 2008's unsung dark black gem Mysticism. Inarguably the most majestic journey the band has taken its listeners on thus far, Return To Abandoned will appeal to old and new fans alike. View the cover art HERE.

KHORS was formed by former Astrofaes bassist, Khorus, in August 2004, with an aim to create gloomy, powerful, atmospheric black metal. Sometime later, guitarist/vocalist Helg (Runes Of Dianceht) and drummer Khaoth (Tessaract, ex-Astrofaes, ex-Hate Forest) joined the fold. The band was later rounded out by guitarist Warth. Contrary to rumors, KHORS is not attached to any politically motivated groups or extremists. For fans of  Kampfar, Moonsorrow, Borknagar, etc.

Return To Abandoned Track Listing:

1. The Arrival (Intro) 

2. Lost Threads 

3. Asgard's Shining 

4. Song of the Void 

5. The Fog (...and Grief Still Moans) 

6. Mysteries Cosmos 

7. The Seas Burn of Omnipotence 

8. Sacrament of Buyan

Earlier this Fall, Paragon reissued The Flames Of Eternity’s Decline and Cold, KHORS' now classic first two full-lengths -- originally released in 2005 and 2006 respectively as a two-CD set with new layout, nine bonus tracks and a rare early video from the band. Though KHORS have long progressed musically, these early recordings still brim with the unique atmosphere of pagan black metal the band was built upon.
