Lake Forest, California-based black metal outfit XANTHOCHROID have released two teaser videos, allowing a glimpse inside the creation and sound of their forthcoming debut full-length album, titled Blessed He With Boils. Watch below:
Said Xanthochroid frontman Sam Meador, "Xanthochroid is an epic black metal band that strives to produce the most sophisticated and enthralling compositions in the metal scene today. Taking influence from bands like EMPEROR, OPETH, MOONSORROW, WINTERSUN, and many others, Xanthochroid combines many styles into a blackened cloud of legendary metal might. Not for the casual listener, but for the true metal connoisseur who demands more depth, more detail, and more musicality than what is out there today. Xanthochroid's music demands repeat listening and a discerning ear, and we can't wait to release our first full-length masterpiece! I hope this will increase everyone's appetites for some good metal by the end of 2012!"
Their 5-track EP, Incultus, is also available for free download at this location.
