| rdfs:comment | - Melana Chasmata is the upcoming second full-length album by Swiss extreme metal band Triptykon, scheduled to be released via Prowling Death Records/Century Media Records on April 14, 2014 in Europe and on 15 April 2014 in North America. The album was officially announced in 22 October 2013 by the band's frontman, Thomas Gabriel Fischer (a.k.a. "Tom Warrior"), on his official blog. The title is in Greek (Μελανά Χασματα) and, according to Fischer, it can be roughly translated as "black, deep depressions/valleys" — or, in a more literal translation, "chasms as [black as] ink".

The album's artwork was provided by famous Surrealist painter H. R. Giger. It is the third time in his career he has collaborated with Thomas Gabriel Fischer; Giger also provided artwork for Fischer's former band Celtic Frost's first full-length, To Mega Therion, in 1985, and to Triptykon's debut Eparistera Daimones in 2010. A music video for the track "Auroræ" was released in 7 August 2014.
