Music video for the single "Wanderer", out now on Sacred Bones Records. Listen / Purchase here: lnk.to/KAWanderer Directed & edited by Joni Satuvaara (Livor Mortis)
@@angelodvornitzky767 He directed the video. I believe this was shot in Aulanko Nature Reserve area in Hämeenlinna. There are some castle ruins there and the view at 1:20 is from the scenic platform :)
I'm not gonna say it sounds like old school black metal, since it has nothing to compare with old school Darkthrone Mayhem or Gorgoroth, but the music is cool with some "depressive" vibes like in other BM bands, but the Rap gestures is kinda disturbing I must say ...🙄😅
Si esa mierda fue muy notoria que cago el video y el tema aunque este tema tampoco suena como Vieja escuela , una lastima a en lo que se está convirtiendo el black tanto las banda como los que la escuchan
It’s like a bladee music video with the hand gestures and head movements. A weird fusion of black metal and hip hop aesthetics. Also musically speaking with the „adlibs“ in there. Not sure how I feel about it yet..

I love kekht arakh because he does whatever he wants. I see people in the comments trying to label this as old school or not. It is evident that it is not old school, it is something new, it is the mixture of the things that kekht arakh likes and inspires him. Is he. People are a complex mix of things and simply sticking to a label kills part of who we are and biases us when it comes to creating. A black metal fan does not have to listen only to black nor does he have to follow a certain pattern. I admire kekht arakh because he is brave to show without reservation what he is and what he likes. Kekht, if he wants, will make you a black metal song, or one for Sailor Moon. He is free, he is honest so as not to hide what he likes and mix it if he wants.
i Appreciate this comment very much... a person does not have to look or act certain way to enjoy music \ do music in their own way... Ofcourse you can show it if you like... Nobody on the street can tell that i have played\listened extreme metal music for 20 years.. :) Still love listening all kinds of genres. You hit the nail on head.. :)
Since I discovered Këkht Aräkh I began to listen to this type of music in a different way, I adore these melodies and the messages they contain, they transport me to an unknown feeling that I don't even understand, I only know that I like it. I'm looking forward to this new song, I know the wait will be totally worth it ⚔️⚘️‼️
@@bleeding_smiling702 There is a lot of talk about what was the first.. Venom - black metal from 1982 might have it in the name but I don't think it is actually.. black metal. But yeah. Maybe Bathory's debut album from 1983? But still imo tough to directly link it to that. I think modern black metal is kinda its own thing. It has pretty much 0 in common with classic rock imo but Im no musicologyst
Its ok. He brings enough real emotion to pull it off. I know there are some people who dont want to accept it but black metal just cant stay the same thing forever. There can still be new things that swirl out from it but only after you have mourned and burried its second child. The new echos are the all brand new children.
@@HonestDepression101 Black metal it's one of the toughest genre to listen to, it's story it's not so inclusive. Things it's changing, but it's still a genre where people continuously gatekeep others, hope more people appraciate this genre
As much as there may be negative criticism, I LOVE this song and this video. This is experimentalism. Respect! Who knows if one day we can collaborate together....🌑🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Indeed, Këkht Aräkh is one of the most refreshing projects, from my humble point of view. I really enjoy the romantic and melancholic style, and seeing it combined with Black Metal creates a powerful blend that conveys intense emotions. Këkht Aräkh and its Romantic Black Metal are brilliant! This video is fantastic because we can see Crying Orc's facial and body expressions, observe the places, forests, rivers, castles, birds, weapons, clothing-everything he found important to show us. It means a lot! The 'old-fashioned' filming style was also a wise choice, making it beautiful, nostalgic, and an old-school video shooting. I truly loved this video. It's truly unfortunate that the video is limited to just 3 minutes; I find it so captivating that I could easily lose track of time and happily spend hours immersed in its content.
It's rap dressed up as black metal, the structure of the instrumental is like a rap beat, the vocals flow like rap, the video aesthetic is closer to rap than black metal. Imagine Bones doing the vocals in his usual style
@@VikVaughnMISC Barely "avant garde". Darkthrone already did "romantic black metal" with "Natassja in Eternal Sleep", and nearly Celestia's entire discography is "romantic BM". Stop gate keeping just to call yourself a BM fan.
@@iii___iii You're telling someone in BM to stop gatekeeping LMAO. You're a poser. Black Metal was invented by gatekeepers and maintained gatekeeping until people like you who have feelings and pronouns came into the scene for the aesthetic. Stick to RABM where other phgts whine about gatekeepers - This is avant garde through and through. Darkthrone was never 'romantic'. That song isn't 'romantic black metal' at all, it's just black metal. Darkthrone also has the catalog to experiment with romanticism if they so choose, because they never started out at some poser Kholkhol appealing to tiktok phggts and sissy reds.
këkht always gets me emotional, first song i listened to was Amor and even though it’s just an instrumental you can still feel the emotion of it. keep making music, we love it 🖤
Holy shit, this is catchy. To be honest, I did flinch at first (Yeah I know, the hand gestures and Lil' Peep-isms) but after a few repeat views, I really started to dig it . Very unique and strangely addictive (not unlike the excellent Pale Swordsman album). Killer tune.
My brother who’s a big peep fan said this video was peep asf (he doesn’t fuck with Black Metal but I blast it regularly so he knows what it is) and honestly Kekht killed this shit sonically and aesthetically it’s not the most technical thing on the planet but this shit has me wanting to pick up my guitars open up the DAW and go ham this shits a 10/10 BM track and is it just me or is man’s legit spitting on some of these parts!?
Очередная потресающая композиция! Удивительный one man band проект, который не уступает другим полноценным группам. Гордость за своих славянских братьев!
I've watched it three times in a row. This little drop of rap makes the whole thing insanely good. And imho this is the best black metal video ever created. After 20 years of listening to black metal, that kind of projects makes me proud of being poisoned by this vibe.
My friend, total support for who are now living in Poland due to the war in your country. Big fan since the first album, i wish you all the best. I hope this track is the first step for a new album 🖤🤘🏻 your style is unique.

Cast a spell and say a prayer thrice (Thrice)
I turn my pain into gold (Into gold tonight)

Calling me home…
