Vesperian is pleased to welcome THE MOSAIC WINDOW @themosaicwindow, the Black Metal project of Andrew Steven Brown, to the roster.

On the band's next album, Answered Prayers — out November 13, 2026 — Brown pulls back from the more polished, prog-tinged death/black hybrid of 2024's Hemasanctum and returns to the band’s original core: first and second wave black metal, filtered through atmospheric rasps of despair and phantasmal, buried death growls. Across ten tracks, its nihilistic concept unfolds — humanity erased retroactively, centuries before the Industrial Revolution, as the only cure for a poisoned world.

Alongside the announcement, the band share the album's first single, "What Sage Could Not Cleanse". An older composition, it anchors Answered Prayers' back-to-roots direction: raw, stripped of any polish, a statement of intent — no ritual can purify what's already beyond saving.

Check out “What Sage Could Not Cleanse” via the link in our pinned stories.

Answered Prayers was mixed and mastered by Alex Sedin (Ghostalgy Productions), with Dmitry Kim (Jinjer and others) on session drums.
The cover artwork was done by Luciana Nedelea (Mare Cognitum, Sepulchral Curse and others).

THE MOSAIC WINDOW — PRE-ORDERS OPEN FOR NEW ALBUM “Answered Prayers” | SECOND SINGLE “Lightning Be Thy Guide” OUT NOW

Vesperian is proud to open pre-orders for Answered Prayers, the new album by THE MOSAIC WINDOW, out on November 13th, 2026. Alongside the pre-order launch, the album’s second single, “Lightning Be Thy Guide”, is available now on all digital platforms.

Answered Prayers marks a deliberate return to the roots for THE MOSAIC WINDOW, the solo project of Andrew Steven “Skeletonhammer” Brown (also known for his work in BONE ABDUCTION). The project’s 2024 album Hemasanctum was a polished, prog-tinged hybrid of death and black metal. The new record moves away from that sound and draws directly on the first and second waves of black metal: cold, fast, melodic and uncompromising.

The album’s ten tracks are bound together by a bleak, nihilistic concept. The idea is a poisoned world whose only cure is the erasure of humanity, undone retroactively, centuries before the Industrial Revolution ever had a chance to begin.

Following lead single “What Sage Could Not Cleanse”, “Lightning Be Thy Guide” shows a different side of the album. It is a mainly mid-tempo, dynamic piece that trades sheer velocity for weight and atmosphere, without losing any of the record’s bite.

Answered Prayers was mixed and mastered by Alex Sedin at Ghostalgy Productions, with session drums performed by Dmitry Kim (Jinjer, among others).

Answered Prayers will be available digitally and in the following physical versions:
▶Digipak CD
▶tape with yellow tape shell
▶Black vinyl
▶“Serpentine” LP with green/black splatter vinyl (300 copies, Bandcamp-exclusive)
▶"Atomized" LP with purple/red splatter vinyl (300 copies, Bandcamp EU-exclusive)
▶"Old Blood" LP with "Old Blood" dark red vinyl (500 copies, EU-exclusive)
▶"Carnage" LP with clear + red/black splatter vinyl (500 copies, US-exclusive)
(all LP-versions come with inlay and OBI-strip) by @themosaicwindow
