Lares, an international psychedelic black doom metal band, have revealed full details for Et In Arcadia Ego album, scheduled for release on April 12th via Argonauta Records. The new outing was recorded live in the band's rehearsal studio, mixed by Luca Leprotti and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege in Portland (Oregon).

Statement from the group: "The album is an accidental concept born from the first session we managed to play together after a long and frustrating break necessitated by lockdowns, band members in high risk categories, and mental illness. Without looking for it we found death, isolation, boredom, uncertainty, rage, and an energy that we decided instantly to try to capture and preserve as it was. No additives, no major editing. In the uncertainty of the times, we began to collect recording equipment, slowly transforming our rehearsal space into a recording studio. We developed a ritual of playing and replaying, without click, the whole 27 minutes, until we got better than close to the original, to the perfect simulacra. There is a bonus track included in the album called "10 Hygiea" that is part of the soundtrack of 'Music Appreciation', a short horror movie we collaborated with."
