The Epigenesis

The Epigenesis is the fifth full-length album by the black metal band Melechesh.

Ashmedi explained that this decision was a fit with the band's general approach to music: We don't always do it by the book.

[3] He further noted that We put in a dim red light and some Sumerian and Mesopotamian artifacts to get the atmosphere.

The studio would be empty, just the engineer, and he was in a different room and couldn't see me...I wanted to feel as primal as possible to fairly represent the vocals.

[3]Half the bass lines had to be played by Ashmedi due to a technical issue.
