CASTLE Wants You To Sacrifice Yourself to the Supernatural in New Video “100 Eyes”

High priests of sinister doom return with a hook-laden heavy metal thrill-ride into Nosferatu nights!

Bay Area occult doom trio CASTLE is proud to present the debut single and video, “100 Eyes,” taken from their upcoming sixth album Evil Remains, due out September 6 via Hammerheart Records.

“We’re excited to be making and sharing music again,” says the band’s frontwoman Liz Blackwell. “Our first release from the new album is a message and a reminder to eliminate the distractions that prevent oneself from being the master of your own mind. Our latest video pulled our artistic community together to film a visual representation of self-discovery and empowerment."

Back after a six year break with the black magick fully recharged, CASTLE has delivered a juggernaut of riffery in a hook-laden mix of doom and psychedelic-tinged classic metal. Adding to the atmosphere of majestic doom, Elizabeth Blackwell’s haunted, full-blooded vocals are electric witch hymns of death and madness; ‘Hear my warning, heed my call,’ indeed.

Recorded at Raincity Recorders in Vancouver B.C. by producer Jesse Gander (Anciients, 3 Inches of Blood, Brutus), Evil Remains sonically balances the warm and fuzzy with the bombastic power of an alternate universe stadium rock band. Bassist/vocalist Elizabeth Blackwell and guitarist/vocalist Mat Davis bring their unique female and male vocal attack and scorching, serpentine riffs to dizzying new heights. Rounded out by drummer Mike Cotton’s thunderous precision, Evil Remains delivers a metallic knock out punch from the first to the last note of its eight pummeling tracks.

Written over a five year period — beginning in CASTLE’s then-hometown of Joshua Tree, California, after a year-long tour for their previous album, Deal Thy Fate — the songwriting culminated this past year with pre-production sessions taking place in the band’s new twin home bases of San Francisco and Vancouver.

Since storming out of San Francisco with their 2011 debut In Witch Order, CASTLE has toured relentlessly, playing close to 700 shows on three continents. The live ritual resumes this September across Europe with North American dates to follow.

Evil Remains drops September 6 worldwide on digipak CD, various vinyl variants and all major streaming platforms via Hammerheart Records.

Totengott – Beyond the Veil (2024)

James Sweetlove looks at Beyond the Veil, the new album from Spanish First Wave black metal / avant-garde extreme metal act Totengott, released July 12th on Hammerheart Records.

Do you like Celtic Frost's earlier works like Morbid Tales or To Mega Therion? How about their later work like Monotheist? Well then you know its a tough choice of which to listen to, because each offers something vastly different to the other. Well stress no more my friend, because Spanish act Totengott have solved this problem for you by combining the best elements of both parts of the band's career into one powerful and diverse offering of First Wave black metal and avant-garde extreme metal. This is an immediate album of the year contender for me and a must listen for all extreme metal fans.

Listen to the album and read the full review:
