WORMWITCH released their first demo in 2015 and signed to Prosthetic Records shortly thereafter, under whom they released Strike Mortal Soil (2017), Heaven That Dwells Within (2019), and Wolf Hex (2021). During that time, the band toured with the likes of The Black Dahlia Murder, Suffocation, Midnight, Necrot, Uada, Bewitcher, and others, earning themselves a dedicated cult following and international critical praise. In 2022, WORMWITCH struck out to independently release a string of singles and embark upon several tours of North America, refining their craft and continuing their tried-and-true tradition of devilish speed, searing melody and diabolical intensity.
Psychedelic thrash outfit SADISTIC RITUAL released their debut album, Visionaire Of Death, in 2019. The offering was described by Decibel Magazine as “a fearsome thrash ripper,” whilst other publications leveled comparisons to the likes of Kreator, Watain, and Sodom. SADISTIC RITUAL delivers classic thrash licks in spades, set against a backdrop of chugging, headbang-worthy tunes. The band unleashed their critically-lauded The Enigma, Boundless full-length via Prosthetic Records in 2022. The record seethed with themes of real-world horrors juxtaposed by an affection for LSD making the “psychedelic” part of “psychedelic thrash” become clearly apparent. SADISTIC RITUAL's acid infused ripping thrash continues to push the boundaries of the genre to new realms of madness in 2024. With their latest offering, they carry on the sound of The Enigma, Boundless, with a darker, more psychedelic approach with lyrics highlighting our dystopian society.
The moon sails in a sea of black infinity speckled with stars.
You feel flesh turn to fur, and your blood boils with bestial rage.
The hunt begins.

Blackbraid quickly followed up their 2022 debut in 2023 with more native folk infused furious black metal. This is by no means a sophomore slump as it is equally excellent, methodical, melodical, and approachable as the first record. 9/10 RJ
