After the release of “Cult of Uzura” last year, SKAPHOS will already return in 2026 with “The Descent”, a new album revisiting the band’s early works.
The record will feature four tracks from “Bathyscaphe” and four others from “Thooi,” the band’s first two albums. For the occasion, these songs have been re-recorded, reworked, and fully remixed, offering a new immersion into the abyssal universe of SKAPHOS.
To accompany this announcement, the band unveils a first music video: “Mireborn.”
The band has released three albums : Bathyscaphe (2020), Thooï (2022) and Cult of Uzura (2025), merging the eerie dissonances of Black Metal with the sheer heaviness of Death Metal.

Renowned for their harrowing, ritualistic live shows, Skaphos has performed in over 20 countries, touring across Europe and Asia with legendary acts such as I Am Morbid, Vader, Marduk, Suffocation, Belphegor, Batushka and Vomitory.
« Skaphos managed to make it a hell of a performance, with brutal riffs, menacing rhythms, the French definitely created an astonishing atmosphere » – Antichristmagazine.com
Their abyssal universe extends beyond the stage, with evocative music videos and the short film La Litanie des Flots (2022). They are currently working on a full-length film, Aurores Noires.
