We're delighted to unveil details about "Accursed Possession", the second album from unholy duo CULTUS PROFANO. Pure cold and evil old-school Black Metal.
Simultaneously starker and more atmospheric than 2018 debut "Sacramentum Obscurus", the band achieve malefic transcendence without the need for superficial adornments, through a stripped-back, pitch-black palette of elemental guitars, mesmeric percussion and vocal invocations of burning venom. Here's a first taste of the album :
With the band now a live entity, "Accursed Possession" possesses a tour-honed alchemy of purpose, vision and execution. The arcane vibes of those Italian, Greek and other obscure occultists of the second wave are channelled in a unison of magick and mysticism, invocation and ritual, sulphur and mercury, throughout the 7 hymns :
01. Cursed in Sin, Op. 25
02. Devoted to the Black Horns, Op. 16
03. Upon a Tomb of Sacrilege, Op. 24
04. Towards the Temple of Darkened Fates, Op. 19
05. Within a Coven of Shadows, Op. 21
06. Tenebris Venit, Op. 23
07. Crown of Hellfire, Op. 11
Mixed and mastered by Rune S. at Stavmix Studio, the front cover was painted by Khaos Diktator Design and the layout handled by Kontamination Design.
"Accursed Possession" will be released on CD, 12" LP, exclusive DMP edition 12" LP, audio cassette and digital on August 28th. Pre-orders are possible now via our EU shop, Bandcamp and US shop. Bundle packs at cheaper price available exclusively from our EU shop.
