The band's latest album Seediq Bale, released October 3 on Down Port Music/RED, tells the Taiwanese legend of the Seediq people and their strife and struggles against the Japanese. The use of an er-hu, a unique Asian two-string violin, brings an additional element of sadness to Chthonic's eerie music.
