Philadelphia’s Devil Master have returned from the shadows and their roots in ritual magick have never been more prominent than on their upcoming sophomore record, Ecstasies of Never Ending Night. Recorded live to analog tape by Pete DeBoer (Blood Incantation, Spectral Voice), this new record expands on the warped riffing and dark atmospheres that have already propelled Devil Master as one of the underground’s most unique and unfettered bands. From the band’s blackened punk maelstrom of “Acid Black Mass” to the spiraling death rock of “Abyss In Vision” and the layers of refined atmosphere on the closer “Never Ending Night”, a collection of fiery, tumultuous riffs shines through, with lyrical themes lacing the record with life-affirming blasphemy and existential dread. Ecstasies of Never Ending Night proves to be a crucial addition to the pantheon of evil satanic metal. Below this article you can watch the music video for the first single off of the record, the aforementioned “Acid Black Mass”.
Ecstasies of Never Ending Night will be released on April 29th via Relapse Records. Physical and digital pre-orders are now available here.
