Theusz Hamtaahk

Theusz Hamtaahk is a live album by the French rock band Magma, released in 2001. The album was recorded in 2000 over the course of two days during Magma's 30th anniversary shows at the Trianon theater, Paris, France and released both as a 3 audio CD box with a 16-page color booklet and libretti containing all the lyrics, and as a DVD. It is the first record to contain all three movements of the trilogy Theusz Hamtaahk: The words to the music are sung completely in Magma's constructed language Kobaïan.
 * The first movement, "Theusz Hamtaahk" ("Time of Hatred"), had already been part of Magma's live repertoire since the mid-1970s and was first recorded "live" in a London BBC studio session in 1974, but was not released on record until the 1981 live album Retrospektiw (Parts I+II), recorded in 1980.
 * The second movement, Ẁurdah Ïtah ("Dead Earth"), was released before by a core quartet of then Magma members in 1974 under the name of bandleader Christian Vander as a soundtrack studio album for Yvan Lagrange's 1972 avant-garde film Tristan et Iseult. Re-released on Magma's label Seventh in 1989, it is mostly regarded as a Magma album, though.
 * The third movement, "Mëkanïk Dëstruktïẁ Kömmandöh", was first released as a Magma album in 1973, probably their most famous work.
