Polish black metal act BATUSHKA - known for channeling their music through the reverberant grandeur of ancient rituals of worship - return to Shanghai! Considered by some ‘a special brand of blasphemy’ their music and lyrics — the latter written exclusively in the Old Church Slavonic language — are inspired by the Eastern Orthodox Church, and the band wears habits and Eastern Orthodox schemas during live shows. Essentially, ‘using the tools of the divine to create the most evil-sounding black-metal brew possible’. Wild.
