Paracletus is the fifth full-length studio album recorded by the French black metal band Deathspell Omega, released on 9 November 2010 through Norma Evangelium Diaboli along with Season of Mist.
It is the third part in their metaphysical trilogy of albums representing God, the Devil and Man (following Si monvmentvm reqvires, circvmspice and Fas – Ite, Maledicti, in Ignem Aeternum).
[4] The term paracletus is the Latinised form of the Greek word παράκλητος (parákletos), meaning comforter.
[5][6] Stylistically the album continues in the experimental vein of their previous work since 2004.
The track "Devouring Famine" was released as a free download by Season of Mist approximately three weeks before the album's release.
