PRAISE THE PLAGUE

A Serpent’s Tongue, is the second single from PRAISE THE PLAGUE‘s upcoming new album Suffocating In The Current Of Time, which is set to be released on February 16th!

The single is accompanied by a video clip from Chariot Of Black Moth, who already did videos and trailers for Napalm Death, Cave In, God Is An Astronaut and many others.

PRAISE THE PLAGUE formulate the introduction to the dark, grim soundscape of their third album themselves by saying: “The gate is passed, upon us is a bleak, raging sea. Tidal waves crushing ashore, out of desperation evolves anger and frustration. Time, as a construct, imprisons its architects. “Suffocating In The Current Of Time” takes us from a dark and devouring realm, to staring the devourer into its cold, dead eyes. Lead by fierce and unforgiving melodies, we are marching into our own decay. Lead by the pounding of drums we indulge ourselves in the cloak of false promises.”

The quintet from the German capital Berlin has been around since 2017. After the debut “Antagonist” and their first album for LIFEFORCE RECORDS, “The Obsidian Gate” (2021), “Suffocating In The Current Of Time” showcases a further intensification of the band’s dense and intense black metal. PRAISE THE PLAGUE are modern representatives of their guild and not purists. There are also ominous echoes of doom and sludge as well as atmospheric post-metal. It is no coincidence that the Berliners’ third album remains instrumental for longer passages. This increases the impact of the furious tempo sections with their nagged vocals.

“Suffocating In The Current Of Time” is full of emotion. Not all of them are purely negative and depressing. Nevertheless, PRAISE THE PLAGUE’s playing will be perceived above all as oppressive and hopeless. Given their band name, who can blame them? The musicians pursue relentless catharsis.

New PRAISE THE PLAGUE single ‘Devourer’ from the forthcoming album “Suffocating In The Current Of Time“ out now!

According to the band, “Devourer” is “one of the darker and relentless songs” on the album, focused on “the atrocities of human kind and its reckoning.” And this fits into the broader dark and grim themes of the album, which the band describes in the following way:

“The gate is passed, upon us is a bleak, raging sea. Tidal waves crushing ashore, out of desperation evolves anger and frustration.

Time, as a construct, imprisons its architects.

Suffocating In The Current Of Time takes us from a dark and devouring realm, to staring the devourer into its cold, dead eyes.

Lead by fierce and unforgiving melodies, we are marching into our own decay. Lead by the pounding of drums we indulge ourselves in the cloak of false promises.”
