Aus den Tiefen des Bayerischen Waldes kehren MAAHES mit ihrem zweiten Album „Nechacha“ zurück – einem Album, das härter, düsterer und orchestraler ist als alles, was sie zuvor veröffentlicht haben. Das Album erscheint am 19. September 2025 bei Massacre Records und wird als Mediabook, limitierte Vinyl-LP und in digitalen Formaten erhältlich sein.
Named after the flagellum, the ancient Egyptian symbol of dominion held by pharaohs and gods, “Nechacha” marks a new era for MAAHES: epic arrangements, monumental orchestration, and a deeper descent into the blackened void — without abandoning the raw ferocity of their earlier works.
While their 2020 debut “Reincarnation” was firmly rooted in traditional black metal, “Nechacha” expands the band’s vision with cinematic scope, reminiscent of early Dimmu Borgir, yet unmistakably forged in the unique atmosphere of MAAHES.
“Nechacha” delves into ancient Egyptian ritual, occultism, divine madness, and the legacy of fallen empires. The eleven tracks move between themes of rebirth and destruction, hubris and devotion, domination and transcendence, shaping a sonic temple where myth and metal collide.
