Drought is an EP by Deathspell Omega. It is the band's first release of new material since their 2010 album Paracletus, and can be considered an epilogue of sorts to the trilogy that Paracletus brought to a close. It is the final release included in the band's 2012 vinyl box set incorporating the trilogy and related works, suggesting that the band regards it as thematically connected. As with the material on Paracletus, the music on Drought consists of several short but often connected pieces of music, and the music is somewhat similar in style. The lyrics are a theological parable that intentionally serves as a metaphor for climate change (confirmed in the band's 2020 interview with Cult Never Dies).
