Odiumediae Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Favorite track: Within the Everlasting Hellfire.

Anneliese 03:56
Convulsions breed terror The manifestation made clear Malformations bring tremors Bestial outburst severe Tearing the crown of roses From the claws of the priest Delusional diagnosis A victim in the hands of the beast Out from the fires of hell 6 demons enter the physical world Possessed by the creatures below Decrepit, feeble and hollow Anneliese Michel – A vessel where the demons dwell Anneliese Michel – A portal to the underworld Submit to the darkness within Hallucinations of horror Seven crowns and seven horns An Exhibition of torture A fragile object of scorn A martyr for the sinners Enduring endless torment and pain Never truly delivered The mind of the girl is drained Out from the fires of hell 6 demons enter the physical world Possessed by the creatures below Decrepit, feeble and hollow Anneliese Michel – A vessel where the demons dwell Anneliese Michel – A portal to the underworld Submit to the darkness within Let her burn!

“Jesus, save my child, for I bare the mark The black spirit shadows my presence and wanders the dark I will have my vengeance, you will die in pain Iniquitous, black magick practice - subjugation as your soul withers away” Demdike In league with the Devil “Jesus, save my child, I am one with the beast I am bound to the fire and I will not be released Your perilous future will be written in clay Sinister, blasphemous witchcraft – debilitating as your soul withers away” Demdike In league with the Devil Whore - Bastard - Evil In league with the Devil Demdike In league with the Devil Whore - Bastard - Evil In league with the Devil

Summoning... We summon forth our master, our saviour Baptise us in the name of the goat We bring you the newborn, the sweet sinful blood And we drink the life straight from its throat Dance – Around the circle of... Fire – Sign Lucifer's pact Chant – The words of black magick spell Cast down – into the everlasting flame You are bound To remain within the everlasting hellfire Cast down We submit ourselves to the darkness Eternal adoration of the beast Carving diabolic sigils The devil's receipt We kneel before the altar of Satan Let us ascend towards the sky Seven spirits gathered here in carnal desire We trample the cross we deny Dance – Around the circle of... Fire – Sign Lucifer's pact Chant – The words of black magick spell Cast down – into the everlasting flame You are bound To remain within the everlasting hellfire

From Hell 03:01
I am the mutilator I'll cut the bitch and watch her die Surreptitious desecrator Run for your life The mist it hides my presence Through darkened streets I stalk Though they feel my omnipresence They howl in shock Feel the steel Pierce your flesh Taste the blade As I incise Screams of pain Fill the air Helpless victim Paralysed From Hell Bound for humiliation I'll drain the bitch with frantic lust Perverted fascination Draped in disgust “I send you half the kidne” This simple act depraved A vile beast within me Born to degrade Feel the steel Pierce your flesh Taste the blade As I incise Screams of pain Fill the air Helpless victim Paralysed From Hell Catch me when you can! Feel the steel Pierce your flesh Taste the blade As I incise Screams of pain Fill the air Helpless victim Paralysed From Hell I am the ripper ...From Hell

They gather round the pentagram with fire in their eyes Mesmerised by cryptic flame, conjuring their demise Clandestine ritual of foul, arcane blasphemies Blood is spilled, the chants commence the evil sorcery Black Invocation Ancient spirits, blackened spectres rise up from the flame The Lord of darkness dominant, as the disciples cry his name One by one, each child is drained and cast down below To dance among the cults of Hades, slaves forever more Black Invocation

I bleed before the congregation as I devour the light The winds of hades worsen as the spectres prepare for their flight Evil – The nefarious triumph of death Demons rise from the depths Death for possession This deadly obsession This unholy sermon impure Infernal legions They shatter and weaken Their lecherous ills I endure Morbid deception This foul perception From beyond the kingdoms of sin Decrepit vessel In league with the devil Malevolent spectres within Conduit closing I suffer lacerations as this sermon opens gateways obscure I bathe in the echoes of spirits that I have conjured Evil – The nefarious triumph of death Demons rise from the depths Death for possession This deadly obsession This unholy sermon impure Infernal legions They shatter and weaken Their lecherous ills I endure Morbid deception This foul perception From beyond the kingdoms of sin Decrepit vessel In league with the devil Malevolent spectres within Conduit closing I bleed before the congregation as I devour the light The winds of hades worsen as the spectres prepare for their flight Evil – The nefarious triumph of death Demons rise from the depths Death for possession This deadly obsession This unholy sermon impure Infernal legions They shatter and weaken Their lecherous ills I endure Morbid deception This foul perception From beyond the kingdoms of sin Decrepit vessel In league with the devil Malevolent spectres within Conduit closed

Surrender unto me you mortals, mist will devour the light Capitulate in the terror of the maelstrom, into eternal night Hypnotised by the bells of hades, armies march on to torment Hellhounds shrieking and death cults rising, apostles begin to ascend Whipped by the forked tongue of Lucifer Disciples of the beast embrace the coagulating dark Temples have fallen, bodies are rotting, the frail and the weak have been slain A monument to the triumph of darkness, a pillar to the conquest of pain Desecrate with the aim to conquer, legions unleash their commands Bringing darkness and force-fed terror, there's no repentance for the damned Whipped by the forked tongue of Lucifer Disciples of the beast embrace the coagulating dark Rise – blackened spectres Kill – The non-believers Swallowed by the infernal flame March – Satan's soldiers Gaze – Into the abyss The birth of the new infernal... Reign – of total terror Feast – of morbid pleasure Bringer of the blackest domain Burn – the holy scripture Hold – The Unhallowed sceptre The birth of the new infernal reign Surrender unto me you mortals, mist will devour the light Capitulate in the terror of the maelstrom, into eternal night Whipped by the forked tongue of Lucifer Disciples of the beast embrace... The coagulating dark

about

Recorded DIY between October 2016 and February 2017

“Scotland's King of the arcane mosh.” - Metal Hammer

"[Coagulating Darkness] feels as much a homage as it does an original creation... which, given the backwards-facing
tendencies of black, speed, and thrash metal, means he's nailed it." - Noisey

"Old school metal as it was meant to be, Hellripper has crafted the album to beat this year. Fans of everything from
Sabbat to Venom to Toxic Holocaust should be looking into this now, as this is authentic black/speed metal with all of
the trimmings that make this style so great." - The Metal Observer
