Noctem Celebrate Winter Solstice with “The Pale Moon Rite” Video

This time of year ain’t only for red and green ribbon strewn amongst cheap looking tinsel. No, in fact the Pagans did the whole holiday thing way before Christians did, so this really is mostly their time to celebrate the Winter Solstice.

To that end, blackened death metal outfit Noctem dropped their music video for “The Pale Moon Rite,” a track off their 2022 album Credo Certe Ne Cras.

Guitarist Moss got reminiscent of the past 12 months, admitting the last 12 months have been on hell of a ride for the band.

“After an incredible twelve months that saw us bring our Credo Certe Ne Cras show to some of Europe’s biggest metal festivals such as Graspop Metal Meeting, Summer Breeze, and Leyendas Del Rock, as well as cities far and wide, it feels like the perfect ending to the year to be releasing a music video for ‘The Pale Moon Rite.’ We hope that our devilish horde of NOCTEM followers enjoy the music video and play the song fucking loud! The sun has set, ‘The Pale Moon Rite ‘begins!”

Armed wit hour black metal Chrismas playlist and now this, it seems like the music’s got the holiday on notice.
