The song offers a chaotic and emotionally charged journey between two fractured states of mind, unfolding against the backdrop of a universe on the brink of annihilation.
With their distinct blend of atmosphere, aggression, and storytelling, WORMWOOD have firmly established themselves as one of the leading forces in the Swedish metal scene. Their ambitious trilogy, ‘Nattarvet,’ ‘Arkivet,’ and ‘The Star,’ has not only earned them widespread critical praise but also propelled them to the top of national charts and secured multiple nominations for prestigious industry awards.

WORMWOOD‘s ‘Trilogy of Death’ is a conceptual journey through historical and existential themes. ‘NATTARVET’ explored the 19th-century famine in the Nordics, ‘ARKIVET‘ delved into the downfall of humanity, and in ‘THE STAR,’ the band reveals the story of the universe’s last breath. This new album takes the listeners on a profound journey through a dying universe and acts as the last breath in a cosmos we perhaps don’t deserve. After ‘NATTARVET‘ and ‘ARKIVET‘ led the band to national chart successes and several nominations for prestigious industry awards, WORMWOOD has cemented its position as a leading force in the Swedish metal scene.
Renowned metal producer Sverker Widgren from Wing Studios in Stockholm lent his expertise to the mixing and mastering of ‘THE STAR’ to ensure a sound experience that matches the grandiose approach of the band’s vision.
“‘THE STAR’ is the last gasp of a universe we didn’t deserve,” says Nine, “With this album, we invite our fans to join us on a cosmic odyssey, exploring the depths of despair and the peace that follows. It’s the conclusion of a trilogy, a story we’ve been eager to share.” ‘THE STAR‘ is out now on all established streaming platforms, as well as physical copies, including the captivating vinyl edition: a double LP with a beautifully designed gatefold sleeve that visually complements the depth and complexity of the music.
