Cathedral Of The Black Cult, the second full-length album by Croatian black metal band Black Cult, was released on CD today, June 9th, in Ukraine and Croatia. It will be released in Japan on June 10th, The UK and Europe on June 17th, as well as North and South America on July 8th. 

Containing ten songs, including a Motörhead cover “Kingdom Of The Worm”, Cathedral Of The Black Cult is a manifestation of the individual presence of its creators within the black metal scene for almost two decades. Each track is a journey into a realm of despair and darkness, mainly due to the harsh vocals and cold and dark guitar melodies that blend perfectly together. The cover art and tracklisting are as follows:

"Black Cathedral"
"Worship The Beast" 
"Dark Matter"
"Until The Devil Takes Us" 
"The Witches Dance"
"Hierophant"
"Undeath" 
"Gaze Of Insanity" 
"Ego Te Absolvo" 
"Kingdom Of The Worm" (Motörhead cover) 

This is not an album that anyone can just 'whack on' in the background willy nilly. It must be listened to intently and taken in like the musical drug that it is. Cathedral Of The Black Cult is a flawless, yet intimidating musical experience which will open a portal to another dimension to the listener who's ready to gaze into it.

Streaming melodic riffs in extended phrases form the defining character of each song with representational distinction and progressions towards tonal and rhythmic changes, communicating the purpose of hierarchical sequence observed in nature’s ferociously necessary order of operation, reflected in the substance of the inner-self, magnified in the character of spiritual striving and agonizing existential discovery.

This is pure unsaturated black metal in all of its cold fury! There isn’t just grim lyrics reflecting the power of Satan and the beauty of Darkness, but the album actually draws the listener into the world beyond humanity. If you truly understand the music, you will be taken to the dark endless universe!
