Deep Calleth Upon Deep
album by Satyricon
Deep Calleth Upon Deep is the ninth studio album by Norwegian black metal band Satyricon. It was released on 22 September 2017 under Napalm Records.

In January 2018, the album was nominated in Norway for the Spellemann Award for best metal album. However, the winner was E of Enslaved.
Background
Deep Calleth Upon Deep began to be composed in early 2015. However, in late September/early October of that year Satyricon frontman, Sigurd Wongraven, was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. Due to this situation, the production process for a new album suffered significant delays, while he underwent months of non-surgical treatment and recovery.
Finally, the album was recorded between March and April 2017 in Oslo Klang, a recording facility in downtown Oslo, Norway, and Armoury Studios in Vancouver, Canada.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Deep Calleth Upon Deep” as album by Satyricon. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Object files, edition statements, performance records and contemporary criticism preserve different stages of the work’s history. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 9, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q33797956. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2017, 2018 and 2015.
Titles can refer to several editions, objects or performances, making precise identification essential before interpretation.
