Nowy numer od DEMON SPELL

 

Today, Italian dark heavy metallers Demon Spell premiere the new track "As Lucifer Smiles" at the New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal (NWOTHM) YouTube channel. The track is the third to be revealed from the band's highly anticipated debut album, Blessed Be the Dark, set for international release on April 24th via Dying Victims Productions. Hear Demon Spell's "As Lucifer Smiles" in its entirety exclusively HERE.

After the cursed EP Evil Nights in 2024, the coven of Demon Spell returns, unleashing a vision of dark, occult heavy metal born from dust, bone, and shadow. Appropriately titled Blessed Be the Dark, the Italians’ debut album is a descent into ritual fire and ancient doom, where the echoes of the grave sing once more. This is music for disciples of the timeless art of darkness.

With Blessed Be the Dark, Demon Spell deepen their devotion to a shadowed form of heavy metal rooted in the classic tradition yet veiled in occult and arcane tones, all performance with a provocative theatrical presence. Wholly untouched by modernity, their sound draws from the primordial essence of early heavy metal; one can imagine the cutoff year at 1985, or perhaps earlier. The record presents a more mature and refined vision of the band’s sound as first displayed on the quick-hitting Evil Nights, here exploring darker, more occult atmospheres while also offering raw, energetic passages that bring moments of levity and drive.

Listening to Demon Spell in full-length form feels like entering an endless Sabbath, where past and present dissolve and the flame never dies. Blessed Be the Dark stands as a testament to heavy metal as ceremony—timeless, solemn, and possessed by the Spirit of the Night.
