CULT OF ERINYES sign with code666
May 7, 2012No Comments
code666 signed the Ritualistic Black Metal band CULT OF ERINYES for a multi-album deal.
Drawing its energy from the darkest thoughts of its creators, this new extreme and punitive outfit intends to evolve in the realms of Black Metal while pushing its limits a bit further. Spawned with the intention to distil arstistic audacity into respected traditions, Cult of Erinyes belongs to the forbidden experience, where music is merely a symptom of a higher truth. Ritualistic hymns, vicious and twisted vocals, furious rhythmics and ambient digressions are only a few weapons which will make of Cult of Erinyes a band to be reckoned with.
Formed late 2009, the Cult wasted no time, recording its first EP “Golgotha” less than a year later. The EP was released early 2011 through Kunsthauch & Dunkelkunst, as well as on a limited edition tape through Caverna Abismal Records. Insatiable, the band re-entered the Blackout Multimedia studio late 2010 to record its first full-length album with Phorgath (Enthroned, Emptiness). “A Place to Call My Unknown” was released on Les Acteurs de l’Ombre Production around mid-2011 and is almost unanimously revered by media and audiences.

Few words from the band: “Followers of The Cult, One year exactly after the birth of “A Place to Call My Unknown”, we are pleased to announce that our next full length will be released by Code 666 records. This Italian label is known for releasing bands that follow their own path and we are proud to join this entity. Cult of Erinyes is working very hard on a lot of new songs and will probably hit the studio at the end of the year to record its sophomore album”

code666 is happy to announce the signing of the Post-Atomic Sonic Tribe AGRUSS for the release of their debut album titled “Morok”, scheduled to hit stores on April 26th, 2012: a very symbolic day, since it is the 26th anniversary of the Nuclear Accident of Chernobyl.Agruss was founded in Ukraine in 2009. All members of the band have grown on a land that symbolically reflect the reality of our days: ancient forests, swamps and rivers surrounded by three old nuclear power plants from Sovietic era, one of which exploded in 1986, leaving a permanent scar on our planet and in the life of 6 young mens. “Morok” is the debut album of this incredible band, a desperate scream of frustration, anger and condemnation to the world, and for the world.
“We are very proud to work with code666″ says vocalist Tvorek ” it is a label devoted to discover special and unique bands from obscure places, we really feel at home here. “Morok” is our debut album and it is the first part of a future trilogy… our songs are the result of experiments and rituals to recreate the post-atomic atmosphere of our land… those tracks have been recorded in very difficult living conditions for us, but the whole process helped our everyday life in many ways, so we decided to experiments with sound structures and melodies, from the cold and depressive black metal to pure hardcore brutality. Nature is inside us, we are inside the nature.”
