The Great Old Ones Follow Randolph Carter’s Treacherous Path “Under The Sign Of Koth”

The Great Old Ones have always been known to craft narrative-based concept albums around the works of 20th century horror writer H.P. Lovecraft. On Kadath, the Great Old Ones dip even deeper into Lovecraft’s Dreamlands. New single “Under the Sign of Koth” sheds light on the next chapter of Randolph Carter’s journey. Kadath is out January 24th, 2025 on Season of Mist.

Kadath marks a departure from the oceanic depths of the Cthulhu mythos, venturing instead into the Dreamlands. It is here that we follow the protagonist, Randolph Carter, as he “seeks the fabled city that haunts his visions.” The album focuses on “his longing and determination, embodying the treacherous path he treads amidst the capricious gods and monstrous entities that dwell within this twilight realm.”

The album was recorded under the eye of Francis Caste at Studio Sainte-Marthe, Paris.
