Witchunter / Blackevil - Witchevil Attack! (Blasphemous Art Productions, 2018)

Blackevil is a German blackened thrash metal band that has been active since 2013. They previously released The Ceremonial Fire in 2017 and Forever Baptised in Eternal Fire in 2020. Now, they’re back with their challenging third album, humorously titled Praise The Communion Fire For The Unhallowed Sacrament. Quite the mouthful! Over the years, the band has cycled through several drummers, and…

Blackevil - Praise the Communion Fire for the Unhallowed Sacrament

Black/Heavy/Thrash Metal from Germany

Now, with third album Praise the Communion Fire for the Unhallowed Sacrament, BLACKEVIL take bolder steps into the epic that they only hinted at prior. If its predecessor began to transcend “blackthrash” categorization, Praise the Communion Fire wholly does so, canvassing a wider range of other stylistic sizes – late ‘90s melodic black metal, same-era blackened death, early ‘80s epic metal, and even a bit of NWOBHM that preceded that – that altogether result in something that’s more unique than ever. The album’s runtime of 46 minutes across seven tracks no doubt suggests that turn toward the epic, and the songwriting indeed goes everywhere but still with remarkable focus.

1. Timeless Throne 06:02 2. Divine Forces 05:25 3. Beneath this Pentagram 06:25 4. Praise the Fire for the Sacrament 05:01 5. The Gladiator 06:42 6. Unknown Hands 05:18 7. Towards the Carpathian Winter Battle 10:55

Release date: October 25th, 2024

Blind buy of the month: Blackevil – Forever Baptised In Eternal Fire.

I was flipping the bins at @soundrevolutionhtx over the weekend and saw this record in the discount bin. I’d never heard of Blackevil before, but the label (@dyingvictimsproductions) has a stellar roster so I went for it. Results: very cool! This is blackened thrash from Bavaria, Germany. The best way I can think to describe it is what you would get if you put these bands into a blender: Hellripper, Hazzerd, Skeletonwitch, and Bewitcher. The guitars on this album sound glorious to these ears. I call this gamble a win.
