AND STILL THEY TREAT THE LIVING FAR WORSE THAN THE DEAD
THE RED MOON RISES AND DROWNS THE WORLD IN BLOOD
THIS CABAL KNOWS NO MERCY,
WRETCHED KINGS WHO SCORN OUR BREATH
THEIR ENGINES EVER DRONING
THEIR ENDLESS HOLY WARS, STAINING DESERTS RED
LAND WORSHIP, FLESH CULT, OIL WORSHIP, BLOOD CULT
THE CRAWLING SUBMISSION OF THE SLAVE
SUBJUGATION TO MOLOCH
CULT OF THE BLOOD MONARCH
NOW YOU REAP A WIND OF KNIVES
ACROSS THE EARTH, IN SEARCH OF WHAT?
ANOTHER CHARCOAL FOREST
ANOTHER SMOKING CITY
ANOTHER PIT OF ROTTING BONES
HAVE YOUR GODS NOT HAD THEIR FILL?
“Pathetic and very terrible is the long history of cruelty, torture and human sacrifice endured in the hope of placating the jealous gods. The trembling believer thinks when what is most precious has been freely given their lust for blood must be appeased. The ‘Religion of Moloch’ as such creeds may be called is in essence the cringing submission of the slave.”- Bertrand Russell
As we watch the ruins of Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria smoulder we can realise that today’s so called “leaders” employ the same sacrificial practices of the old bloody religions in the name of progress and power.

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
This band's been one of my favorite acts in modern death metal for a while now, and their debut album got me sold on these guys really quick. honeycombguy
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. Odiumediae
On their ferocious self-titled debut, the Australian punks pit d-beat percussion against gnarled, metallic melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 3, 2024
Aussie trio Burger Chef dish out a hearty helping of noise rock with a side of d-beat: messy, raw, and oh-so satisfying. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 20, 2022
This Australian group wraps D-beat in layers of psychedelic fuzz & squall for a howl from the depths of modern dystopia. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 28, 2018
I came accross Black Curse, and their first demo, on Greg Biehl / No Gleaming Light YT channel in late 2019 and a bit later, in 2020, as it was covid, a whole lot of time was spent at home listening to music.
In April 2020, I took a slap in my face. The songs that were already on the demo, with the new production here were so insane, it dragged me to hell. Black Curse is definitely one of the most violent band I listened in the last years. Next-level Black-Death metal for sure ! drs_dramm
