Concilium by Zmyrna & Phragments

Cassette edition on Monystyr Records coming out in September 2025!

STYR020

The conceptual split "Concilium" immerses you in the late Middle Ages, culminating in the Papal Schism.

Zmyrna opens with an acoustic prelude followed by three black metal tracks in a traditional style, featuring period lyrics in Old Czech. Phragments on the other hand, delivers dark ambient, this time interwoven with echoes and sounds of medieval times.
Together, the two bands create a harmonious contrast of musical expressions, forming a shared testimony of the medieval age.

Phragments thematically focuses on the dramatic events of the Council of Constance. Zmyrna moves through the council’s atmosphere, encountering the bluntness of the poor and the piety of the clergy.
