Hospodi is a studio album by one of the two versions of the Polish black metal band Batushka, which is led by vocalist Bartek Krysiuk, [6] released on July 12, 2019 through Metal Blade Records. It was released under the leadership of Krysiuk with members from the original line-up. The album was released against the will of Batushka's founding member Krzysztof Drabikowski and started an ongoing legal dispute between the two. [7]
'Hospodi' is a concept album based on the Orthodox Liturgy of Death. Many people compare this album to the band's debut due to the difference in sound and writing, and due to the infamous fallout of the original group. In contrast to Batushka's first album prior to the split 'Litourgiya', 'Hospodi' has more atmospheric sound, and each song flows seamlessly into the next, creating a start-to-finish listening experience. The band's film director, Hiatsyntos, directed a short film for the album called 'Parastas', which was split into 5 music videos to promote the album.

Metalcore is a broadly defined fusion genre combining elements of extreme metal and hardcore punk, that originated in the late 1980s. Metalcore is noted for its use of breakdowns, which are slow, intense passages conducive to moshing, while other defining instrumentation includes heavy guitar riffs often utilizing percussive pedal tones and double bass drumming. Vocalists in the genre typically perform screaming; more popular bands often combine this with the use of standard singing, usually during the bridge or chorus of a song. However, the death growl is also a popular technique within the genre.
