To pre-order the record in various formats, please visit: metalblade.com/ravencult

Originating from Athens, Greece, RAVENCULT was spawned to revive the relentless side of black/thrash metal, bringing forth an unpolished, organic sound to manifest their morbid darkness. With Force Of Profanation, they dive even deeper into the abyss of metal obscurity, delivering a merciless barrage of metallic death that continues the tradition of their trademark conceptual axis: revenge, horror and mocking of all that is holy.

Ravencult comments: “‘Tormentor Of Flesh’ is the opening track of the new album, serving the cause of direct attack in our trademark paces & riffing. Lyrically it’s about profane acts of torment against divine flesh, while musically it reflects our adoration for the 80s gods like Possessed/Venom/Slayer. Rejoice in Blasphemy.”

RAVENCULT comments: “In this first sample of our new album, one can witness a big part of what Ravencult is all about in the ‘Force Of Profanation‘ era. Almost all important elements of the band’s sound here shine in their entirety, combining our adoration for the old thrash/d-beat pace with sinister black metal in a variety of tempos. Lyric-wise, ‘Beneath The Relics Of Old’ is inspired by H.P. Lovecraft’s ‘At The Mountains Of Madness’, completing our vision of descending into bottomless depths of horror. For us, making steps forward means definitely not incorporating modern or more complex/technical parts; it’s all about honoring our roots and sound by maximizing aggression and morbidity each time, maintaining the riff-after-riff mentality while everything is executed with absolute determination.”

Metal Blade Records Sign Greek Black Metal Act RAVENCULT

Metal Blade Records have a pleasure to announce the signing of Greek Black Metallers RAVENCULT!

The band comments on the signing: “RAVENCULT is proud to join forces with legendary Metal Blade Records for a worldwide deal. We are honored that our upcoming third full length album in 2016 will be added to a glorious back catalogue that includes masters like Slayer, King Diamond, Mercyful Fate, Cirith Ungol, Immolation, Bolt Thrower amongst others.

“Those who are familiar with us know our driving force has always been a deep devotion to real, straightforward riff-based metal, defending the sound of Old and the mentality that follows. Not only this remains the case, but shall be also enforced as we consider this a new channel for us to spread our aural primitivism.“

Spawned into existence during 2001 to revive a more relentless side of black metal, RAVENCULT brings forth an unpolished, organic sound to manifest their morbid darkness. Originating from Athens, Greece, they have evolved from a late 80′s/early 90′s black metal approach on their debut album “Temples Of Torment,” to a macabre union of pounding black/thrash metal on their sophomore “Morbid Blood” full-length. Their live appearances are a feast of tension and sonic violence, and they have performed in over 20 countries. Conjuring forth the forces of black thrashing command with fanatic devotion, RAVENCULT is Greece’s guard of sinister metal.
