Devilpriest - Where I Am the Chalice, Be Thou the Blood LP

Black vinyl, 300 copies pressed. (Description from Nuclear Winter Records) Polish death metallers DEVILPRIEST will release their highly anticipated third album “Where I Am the Chalice, Be Thou the Blood” on June 27th 2025 via Nuclear Winter Records. Founded in 2015 by veterans of the Polish underground, DEVILPRIEST channels the spirit of early ’90s death metal, shrouded in a conceptual veil of occultism and ritual. Their sound is technical yet relentlessly barbaric, precise yet full of unpredictable tempo shifts – hypnotic, suffocating and deeply meditative. With the third full-length album “Where I Am the Chalice, Be Thou the Blood” DEVILPRIEST continues the concept of satanic enlightenment explored in previous works. This time, however, it is a journey to the origin of the left-hand path, where surrounded with complete darkness the flame of life burns. Meditation on the unspoken words that became the effect or on how to achieve full control over body and mind by forging the irresistible and unrestrained will. What made previous albums unique has been taken to a level of expression previously unheard. Multilayered structures full of hypnotic pulsation intertwined with incredibly fast blast beats and dense, dissonant riffing set in motion a wheel that breaks the bones of the compassionates.
