“Interbellum” is a storm with whom CATHUBODUA will enrapture fans of symphonic metal from all over the world.
The album tells the tale of the creation and destruction of a war goddess – from high hopes, power, and dreams, to love lost and how to deal with an eternal burning guilt.
These intense emotions are musically displayed in a more grandiose and intense way than the band ever did before, incorporating more ideas and influences from heavier metal genres this time.
“Interbellum” hits you in the face, not just emotionally and lyrically but also musically.
It’s raw and heavier than anything CATHUBODUA have ever done before, without compromising on the epic violin melodies, the heavenly orchestrations and vocalist Sara’s immense vocal range.
The guitars are allowed a way more prominent role on the album and generate a massive driving force that carries you through the stories
