Behold ye disciples of sepulchral darkness, with utmost pride Sepulchral Voice Records announce BLACK CURSE’ sophomore album, entitled "Burning in Celestial Poison", to be released internationally on the 25th of October 2024. Four years have passed since "Endless Wound" left stigmata on mankind, but be sure, the quartet will cut even deeper now.

"Burning in Celestial Poison" is not only a statement and lesson in audio-violence, it is a 44 minutes long manifest of radical DEATH Metal causing mental lacerations and chaos! A record supposed to shock, because of its ecstatic ruthlessness and massive fanatical malevolence, hovering deep below the compositions. It opens the doors to a world that is so unbelievable vast, that you risk to lose yourself in it, its depths defy exegesis. Four curses are woven into four hymns of utter death-magic, which will lead you into the black abyss of the grand divine. "Burning in Celestial Poison" truly is an agonized infernal within, shattered and re-jointed into the darkness of the physical. Extreme intensity pointed cruelly towards the soul to extinguish the spirit.

The album was again produced by master Arthur Rizk, who cuts through all expectations with extraordinarily dense and destructive fidelity and production. "Burning in Celestial Poison" sounds like created with the magick, formulas, codes and keys of a world beyond. In order to understand the dark sublimity of this album, maybe other perspectives must be considered, which are not yet defined properly. In our world, it will be considered ugly and oppressive by those, who are not able to succumb to its glorious depths. Intentionally breaking with modern listening habits (and avoiding all rules of song length and structure), it achieves the best result when experienced in darkness and at maximum volume. "Burning in Celestial poison" meanders and finishes with a prophetic roaring sound that surely comes from the world we have to face, which is the world in fire.

To all death metal lunatics and black metal psychopaths left out there in this toothless and tamed scene, let us proclaim the word! CONCRETE WINDS are back to push spikes, needles, and barbed wire into your flesh and ears.

Once again, the noise aggressors slit the veil from beyond and step into our world to pillage and hound to death all what was known, predictable, and comfortable in metal music. Their third album is self-titled for mandatory reasons and shows the band furthermore exploring the EXTREME in extreme metal. This truly is rabies set to music!

While their debut, 2019's Primitive Force, was a beacon of strife in stretching and redefining the boundaries of unholy, grinding death metal, the successor, 2021's Nerve Butcherer, pushed the limits even harder and set new standards in the world of audial bulldozing destruction and blitzin' torment. With Concrete Winds, the band now open wide again the portals to the abattoir and continue right where Nerve Butcherer had left the listener helplessly in a sonic wasteland of scorched earth, barren soil, and sheer darkness. They manifest their will to tear the listeners' drumheads out and to creep deep into souls black. As expected, the album is rooted in outrageous speed, heaviest trembling rhythm passages, abysmal croaked curses, turbulent breaks, and repulsive shrieking leads which let you drown in a maelstrom of insanity. But this time, new layers are also added to the pandemonic universe, as weird staccato riffing sections bleed into witching industrial scenarios.
