Yoth Iria, the brainchild of Greek black metal veterans Jim Mutilator (ex-Rotting Christ), and The Magus, saw debut EP Under His Sway released on Pagan Records at the tail-end of last year, now they’re coming to the UK to perform at Incineration Festival on 11th May in London.
Yoth Iria will be performing on the Underworld stage for the Incineration Festival, alongside Dead Congregation, Conan and others.
The Under His Sway reissue came as 12” vinyl, CD and in digital formats that consisted of a bonus track not included on the previous version of the EP. The physical formats being limited to 500 copies respectively.
Originally released in January 2020, Under His Sway was the duet’s first release. It was an initial taste of what’s to come from the duo that developed and pioneered the underground scene back in the day: a grand blend of heavy/doom and epic black metal that travels the underground into dark realms and silent hills.
A year later, the band released the debut full-length album As the Flame Withers via Pagan Records.
Under His Sway features The Magus – Vocals, George Emmanuel – Guitars, Jim Mutilator – Bass, J. V. Maelstrom – Drums and John Patsouris – Keyboards. Tracks featured are ‘Under His Sway’, ‘Sid Ed Djinn’,’ Visions Of The Dead Lovers’ and ‘The Red Crown Turns Black’ (7” EP version).
