Today, Signal Rex
announces June 26th as the international release date for the highly
anticipated fifth album of Portugal's Irae, Lurking in the Depths, on CD, vinyl
LP, and cassette tape formats.
By now, Irae should
require little introduction. Since the dawn of this cursed millennium, mainman
Vulturius has prolifically pursued a singular vision of RAW BLACK METAL that
includes four full-lengths and countless split releases with likeminded
comrades. As such, Irae
have almost singlehandedly invigorated Portugal's black metal scene,
particularly the rawer iteration of it, and more recently find themselves
aligned with the elite Black Circle, alongside Mons
Veneris, Vetala,
Decrepitude, and Rainha Cólera. Fans since the beginning, Signal Rex are honored to be
aligned with Vulturius for Irae's
long-awaited fifth album.
Begin lurking in those depths with the brand-new
track "Ratazanas" HERE

channel, as well as the previously revealed "Encurralado" HERE,
