The diabolical black/death metal squadron BELPHEGOR have finally unleashed their new studio album called The Devils in its entirety. Their twelfth full-length proves to be one of the strongest and most elaborate records in the group’s career. Mixed & mastered at renowned Fascination Street Studios by Jens Bogren, The Devils sounds absolutely crushing and dynamic, sonically pushing the immense variety of the eight tracks to new heights.
Rounded off by impressive artwork created by Seth Siro Anton, The Devils marks the band’s fourth collaboration with one of metal’s most talented and prolific artworkers. Ultimately, The Devils is an album that musically builds upon BELPHEGOR’s trademark sound, in essence a combination of traditional death and black metal deeply rooted in the 90’s, yet boasts with intricate compositions and detailed arrangements underlining their outstanding position within the international extreme metal circuit.
Blending German, Latin and English lyrics, lead single Totentanz – Dance Macabre is as ferocious as it gets with its insane barrage of blast beats, spiteful lyrics, and sinister guitar melodies. Glorifizierung des Teufels (‘Glorification of the Devil’) and Virtus Asinaria –Prayer offer epic, mid-paced grandeur, chanted vocals and choirs adding new shades of black to their stylistic palette. The title-track or Damnation – Höllensturz prove to be more complex pieces, shifting moods and tempos with ease and expanding BELPHEGOR’s blasphemous onslaught with fascinating twists and turns.
A Music Video For The Album’s Title Track Will be Released On Tuesday, August 2. Stay Tuned!
