On June 30th internationally, Dying Victims Productions will release Spellforger’s explosive debut
EP, Upholders of Evil, on 12” vinyl
format.
Hailing from Indonesia, Spellforger began
in early 2020, highly influenced by early proto-black metal such as Celtic
Frost, early Slayer, Bathory, Possessed, and also modern black metal-influenced
thrash metal bands such as Cruel Force, Deathhammer, Condor, and Inculter. And
since most of the members are a huge fans of the old-school style of death
metal, Spellforger's music also bears
some slight '90s death metal influences, as well.
Spellforger was formed by
Demi Raldi (AKA Middernacht), and then he also invited a close friend named
Jamie (AKA Carrion), who is also guitarist in the black metal bands Ashtarothum
and Neurotic of Gods. Together, they then invited a veteran black metal drummer
named Yaya (AKA L. Tchort), who has been involved in the black metal scene
since the mid '90s. Some time after, Spellforger was
finally formed, with Middernacht recruiting a friend named Fauzan (AKA
Horrifier) to fill the position of bassist even though his real skill is
playing drums.
Simply put, this is METAL
played by METAL maniacs – and Dying Victims is indeed home to
nowadays’ most maniacal metal. If anyone needed further convincing, the title
alone to Upholders of Evil should say more
than enough, as Spellforger likewise
exude a tangible evil here: never overwrought nor overly obvious, this
atmosphere authentically harkens to those ancient forebears.
No other words needed: Spellforger’s
Upholders of Evil will at last
spread its black magick on vinyl!
