Unifying the core trio of Herr General Cerastes, Svartravn and DrBest, Planet Satan was released in 2014. A work of intense and otherworldly black metal power injected with Mysticum's strong cosmic, satanic and psychedelic overtones, Planet Satan welcomed Mysticum to the new millennium with full and unrelenting force, whilst retaining the core elements which made the Norwegians pioneering legends of industrial black metal. Both infernal and nihilistic, as well as apocalyptic in its scope and execution, Planet Satan is a new milestone for the genre in its sublime, chaotic ferocity. Primitive minor-chord riff patterns and tortured vocals mixed with the band's manic and often unconventional programmed drumbeats make this an eerily hypnotic work of the darkest order. The album was recorded and mixed at Fias Co. Studios with producer Sverre D hli and mastered by Tom Kv lsvoll at Strype Audio in Oslo. Emerging in the early 1990's, Mysticum brought to the world a completely unique brand of psychedelic discordant black metal with insane drum machine patterns and synths. They were originally (and briefly) signed to Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions label, such was his belief in the band.
