The USA based black metal entity Predatory Light returns with a new track, "To Plead Like Angels", taken from its forthcoming sophomore album Death And The Twilight Hours, set for release on 20 May via 20 Buck Spin on LP, CS, CD and digitally.
Death And The Twilight Hours is comprised of four towering mazes of infernal technicality, ancient evil, and eerie church nightmare black metal of the South European and South American style. These four hymns conceptually meditate on the triumph of death during times of plague, focusing on the psychological terror and rapture of humanity's impending doom. Borrowing imagery from Boccaccio's account of the plague in his native Florence and inspired by Lucretius' record of the Athenian Plague, Predatory Light explores the historical mindset of human sin and torment, evoking the archetypal personification of death as it tethers human consciousness to the realm of earthly suffering.
The sinister, spectral guitars that drift like cemetery mist over everything and beckon for release tell the story of Death And The Twilight Hours as much as the scathing diseased vocals guiding the path. Now resolutely ascendant, Predatory Light's return heralds the second coming of one of US black metal's immense outliers.
Death And The Twilight Hours was produced and mixed by Andrew Oswald, mastered by Dan Lowndes, and finished with cover art by Aron John Dubois and layout by Dan Fried. A must-hear album for those who follow the paths of Mortuary Drape, Funereal Presence, Superstition, Negative Plane, Cultes des Ghoules, Occultation, Jordablod, Volahn, and the like. Find out for yourselves by listening to "To Plead Like Angels". Link
