Before the project Maeskyyrn was created, Alexandre Lamothe AKA "Harslingoth, the overseer" and Philippe Hurtubise AKA "Saemyaza, the last eye" were in a band now dissolved called Exorcise The Sky.
Relentlessly hungry for music, in September 2017, Harslingoth and Saemyaza quickly started making music and experimenting with what was for them, the expression of their souls.
This created in a relatively short time the first two songs, "Tainted Shores" and "My path, No Longer Linked," Mixing the two mains themes of the project, the despair of this dying world and the ignorance of man. Although it is not clear if the band fits more into Depressive Black Metal or Atmospheric Black Metal, the main idea stays in a dark-themed meditation about this world.
In December 2017, having friends in common, Adrien Blosse AKA "Noctis, the veil of the night" officially joined Maeskyyrn's lineup and contributed for the recording of the demo EP "Thoughts Of Shattered Dreams," released a month later on January 2017. He was, and he is known for releasing an impressive quantity of albums and having multiple solo projects.
The demo was a test to see if it would gain interest in people, and it successfully made a significant impact raising interest in people, enough to keep the project going. Harslingoth's extensive palette of vocals, Noctis great drum crafting, and Saemyaza being the youngest known man in the Quebec's black metal scene (17 yrs at the time) made a great trio and still makes one.
At the time of the release of the first full album called Interlude and after numerous members that temporary came in and postponing the completion of the record, the lineup is now complete. It consist of Indiana Delsart AKA "Nemetona, the grove keeper" on the bass, Marc-Antoine Lazure AKA "Mehrunes, the pace of blight" on drums, "Saemyaza, the last eye" on lead guitar, "Harslingoth, the overseer" at vocals and "Noctis, the veil of night" on rhythm guitar and back vocals.
The recording, mixing, and mastering of the album Interlude was made by Saemyaza, the last eye at Kerouac Productions Studios, founder of Maeskyyrn. The album's official release date and the label will soon be announced.
