To be released on July 22nd 2016 through Art of Propaganda. 

Art of Propaganda is proud to present the highly anticipated third album of Harakiri for the Sky, III: Trauma. Released in 2014 by Art of Propaganda, Harakiri for the Sky's Aokigahara reaped widespread critical acclaim for its startling synthesis of skyscraping post-rock textures and emotive black metal fury. Breathtaking and torturous in equal measures, the highwater mark that Aokigahara set has somehow been eclipsed by III: Trauma. Immediately, the album kicks off with an 11-minute epic titled "Calling the Rain," and indeed do Harakiri for the Sky summon forces both natural and supernatural. As the record winds through seven more equally scintillating epics, III: Trauma swells and swirls, crests and crushes, effortlessly dancing between genres with nary an ounce of self-consciousness. Not for nothing is the album titled Trauma: the emotional landscapes the band travail scrape both the direst depths and fleetingly blissful extremes of the human psyche.

But, as masterful as the band are at this point, this is not new territory for Harakiri for the Sky; they have been a steady work in progress from the start. Founded in 2011 in Vienna, Austria, the aim of Harakiri for the Sky has always been to create a unique mixture of melancholy and aggression, madness and meaning, and wrapped in alternately manic/mellow songs that bridged black metal and atmospheric post-rock. The band was initially begun as a studio project by erstwhile Bifröst member M. S. joined by vocalist/lyricist J. J., and has recently been expanded to a live lineup. With that lineup secured, Harakiri for the Sky then embarked upon four successful European tours with the likes of A Forest of Stars, Der Weg Einer Freiheit, and Agrypnie among others, encompassing over 20 countries to date. Now prepared to release the masterwork III: Trauma, Harakiri for the Sky will take this volatile-yet-beautiful new concoction on the road for the remainder of 2016: massive sound-walls and the barest of emotions await!

Тима Белорусских - О простом

Ragnarök is an original song inspired by the Poetic Edda. It's telling the story about the end of life, but also about a new beginning. In the Old Norse way of thinking people have always seen life as a moving cycle. Something has to die to be reborn again. 
Tagelharpa is played by Kjirk (Jiří Hájek)

Lyrics

Old Norse:

Dró djarfliga dáðrakkr Þórr 
orm eitrfáan upp at borði; 
hamri kníði háfjall skarar 
ofljótt ofan ulfs hnitbróður.

Hraungalkn hlumðu, en hölkn þutu, 
fór in forna fold öll saman; 
sökkðisk síðan sá fiskr í mar.

Óteitr jötunn, er aftr reru,
svá at ár Hymir ekki mælti,
veifði hann ræði veðrs annars til.

-

English translation:

The warder of men, the worm's destroyer, 
Fixed on his hook, the head of the ox; 
There gaped at the bait, the foe of the gods, 
The girdler of all, the earth beneath.

The venomous serpent, swiftly up
To the boat did Thor, the bold one, pull;
With his hammer the loathly, hill of the hair
Of the brother of Fenrir | he smote from above.

The monsters roared, and the rocks resounded, 
And all the earth, so old was shaken;
Then sank the fish, in the sea forthwith.

Vestr fór eg um ver 
er til sævar kemr

Svo er mitt of far
fór ek einn saman

Heimi hverjum í 
Heimi hverjum í

West over water I fared 
to the ancient sea

my course was set 
I traveled all alone

In each and every world 
In each and every world
