Dark synthwave artist GosT has unveiled another taste of their forthcoming album Prophecy.

Released today, “Widow Song" arrives with an equally as haunting lyric video courtesy of NewRetroWave. GosT said this about the new song:

“‘Widow Song’ is very personal to me on a few levels. The title tributes an old close friend who suddenly died years ago. The lyrical content is a direct response to the world of chaos we are all currently having to navigate. Sonically, I wanted to merge my new wave and black metal influences. I pushed my vocal capacity on ‘Widow Song,’ going much lower and higher than I have previously attempted as GOST. The result rests somewhere between Mayhem and Skinny Puppy.”

Prophecy is set for a March 8 release via Metal Blade Records. GosT recorded the record in Texas at the end of 2022. The artist said this about their new album:

“It's about an imaginative fall of the Western civilization, the biblical end of the world – the rise of Satan and Armageddon,” says Lollar. “In America, there's been a big rise of scared, reactive Christianity again, and almost like a re-emergence of the Satanic Panic. So it felt like an appropriate time to bring Satan back into things.”
