Black Metal band from Poland Yfel 1710 just released a video for the song Zbieracz Ciał, from their latest album Zlatują się Ćmy, which was recently released through Pagan Records.
You can watch the video here:
The video includes footage from Die Pest in Florenz (1919), a German silent historical film directed by Otto Rippert.
The band explained:
“At the time of the plague epidemic of 1710 in Warmia, it was a common thing to employ the so-called "lower medical staff".
"They usually worked at night. When people heard their bells, they were obliged to make way and walk away. The task of this "lower medical staff" was to collect corpses from the streets. Dead bodies were placed on special carriages and taken away.
"It sometimes happened that a Body Collector (English for "Zbieracz Ciał") abused his privileges. Some of them demanded money or valuables for taking away the corpse. There were also stories about drunk body collectors who desecrated corpses, simply ignoring other people who were too afraid to do disturb them."
Available in digital and CD formats, the album Zlatują się Ćmy can be ordered from the Pagan Records' webstore or from Bandcamp .
The artwork was done by Robert A. von Ritter Illustrations.
The album was recorded at Willa Wisielców Studio and Bat Studio, mixed and mastered by Michał Grabowski, blackteammedia.pl
Zlatują się Ćmy is dedicated to the memory of the band’s drummer Paweł "Skaven" Walesiak (1980 - 2020). To the Altars in Hell!
