Chthonic Cult

From formless mist emerges CHTHONIC CULT and their debut album, I Am the Scourge of Eternity. The roots of CHTHONIC CULT lay in both Berlin and Wroclaw, but those are merely earthly bindings, for the all-enveloping soundworld of I Am the Scourge of Eternity resolutely lays in the Beyond. Comprising four monolithic tracks, each one as aptly titled as the next, in a soul-draining 47 minutes, I Am the Scourge of Eternity is an orgiastic feast for the ears as well as eyes, drawing together bulldozing black metal, bestial death metal, and smokestacked doom metal into a hypnotizing whole. Utterly entrancing yet confidently confrontational, the vortextural maw CHTHONIC CULT creates is "head music" shot through with violence and dragged through the dirt of centuries. Unapologetically raw and suffocating and yet emitting limitless space despite the world-eating frequencies they unleash, the trio sonically strive to accurately represent the morbid visions exhaustively explored within their lyrics.
