Canadian heavy psychedelic rockers AAWKS are back with a vengeance, releasing the spellbinding new single “Celestial Magick” from their upcoming album On Through The Sky Maze due March 21, 2025, via Black Throne Productions.
A six-minute journey through fuzz-drenched riffs, ethereal harmonies, and crushing grooves, “Celestial Magick” captures the band’s unique blend of heavy, occult-infused psychedelia. “Celestial Magick” dives deep into Norse mythology, vividly depicting a village preparing for an attack from Naglfar, the ship of the dead. AAWKS weaves a tale that is both mythic and existential, embracing mortality as a gateway to transformation. With evocative lyrics, thunderous rhythms, and entrancing guitar work, the track showcases the band’s signature sound: melodic yet punishing, cosmic yet grounded.

Kris Dzierzbicki (vocals/guitar/synth), on the inspiration behind the track:
“This song explores humanity’s rituals and symbols of death, viewing mortality as both an ending and a doorway. It’s about resilience in the face of inevitability and the universal cycle of life, death, and rebirth. We wanted to create something that felt timeless yet immediate, a journey through space and time with riffs as your guide.”
