Omitir - Cotard

In chaos, a singular album is released in 2011 by Omitir entitled 'Cotard,'. It delves into the obscure depths of Cotard's Syndrome, a rare mental disorder characterized by delusions ranging from the belief that one has lost body parts to the conviction of being devoid of a soul. This condition, entangled with mood disorders, psychotic afflictions, and even certain medical conditions, serves as the thematic nucleus of the album.

Omitir's masterful execution of this concept transforms 'Cotard' into a nightmarish dimension through the labyrinthine corridors of the human mind. The fusion of experimental jazz with raw black metal creates an atmosphere that is as unsettling as it is captivating. Each phase of the album mirrors a different facet of Cotard's Syndrome, from the initial confusion to the ultimate acceptance of one's fate.

Loudriver Records' reissue of 'Cotard' in 2023 breathes new life into this haunting, mesmerizing and disturbed album proving that its dark allure remains as potent as ever. The dark green CD version adds an extra layer of mystique to an already enigmatic work of art and previous version of 'Âmago' track as a bonus . As 'Cotard' continues to captivate and disturb listeners, it stands the boundless possibilities of black metal and its ability to delve into the darkest recesses of the human psyches.
