Strategos is a power metal odyssey that plunges listeners into the brutal, brilliant, and treacherous world of Ancient Greek warfare. The album chronicles the evolution of the strategos (general)—from the democratic war councils of Athens to the god-king ambitions of Alexander the Great.

The album charts a relentless chronological course through antiquity’s most defining conflicts. Experience the adrenaline of Miltiades’ running charge at Marathon, the claustrophobic crush of the hoplite phalanx at the Hot Gates, and the doomed naval arrogance of the Sicilian Expedition.

Musically, Strategos is a collision of modern heavy metal and ancient instruments. The album resurrects “secret” ancient musical techniques. The tracks weave in unsettling microtonal bends using the lost Enharmonic Genus, weaponized Eastern scales via the ancient Doctrine of Ethos, and hypnotic, heavy chanting inspired by subterranean Mystery Cults. The journey culminates in an experimental “Chronos-Glitch Metal” finale, symbolizing the fragmentation of Alexander’s empire and the digitization of ancient tactics into the modern world.
