Heavy psych rock ritualists OCCULT HAND ORDER release new single "Mollerussa"!

French psychedelic doom goldsmiths OCCULT HAND ORDER present a haunting second track taken from their forthcoming new album "Meaningless Monuments", to be issued this April 17th on Totem Cat Records. The band recently announced a string of European spring and summer shows in support of the release. 

Lyon, France trio Occult Hand Order crafts a heavy and introspective sound at the crossroads of doom, post-rock and ethereal soundscapes. Their music balances crushing weight and cosmic elevation, ritualistic tension and introspective drift.

With Meaningless Monuments, the band delves into themes of apocalypse, inner collapse and the search for meaning. Darker, slower, and more cinematic, the record unfolds through long, hypnotic structures where massive riffs meet meditative, atmospheric passages. Occult Hand Order emerges as a sonic ritual: a journey through inner ruins, a quest for what remains when everything falls apart. Stream the previous single Novo Mesto!

Says the band: "Mollerussa is a song about isolation and the fear of being left behind. It evokes a moment of vulnerability, when one is left alone with one’s thoughts, torn between pride and anxiety. It is an intimate song, centered on connections, trust, and perseverance."

Formed in the French city of Lyon in 2018, heavy psychedelic trio Occult Hand Order marry the crushing weight of doom with an ethereal cosmic drift, all lifted by soaring vocal harmonies that conjure arcane rituals and otherworldly mysticism.

After a striking self-titled debut in 2019, the band teamed up with the aptly named Interstellar Smoke Records to unleash The Chained, The Burned, The Wounded. The EP was hailed by critics, and the roar from the underground blasted open the doors to Europe’s finest stages, where the trio now stands, locked in and levitating. They're now ready to propel their unique soundscapes into outer space again, with the release of their sophomore album Meaningless Monuments on Totem Cat Records this spring.
