Born in 1996 in Mexico, the black/death metal band Forbidden Rites, after remaining dormant for nearly two decades, they have finally released the debut album, Pantheon Arcanum, via GrimmDistribution. The band is currently having members located in both Mexico and Cyprus.
After 20 years of silence, Forbidden Rites decided to unleash the unconcluded chapter by creating new dark hymns of death. With the addition of Vlad Marin on vocals and bass, the line-up was fully completed. Forbidden Rites musically resembles early '90s Scandinavian black/death acts such as Necrophobic, Dissection, Sacramentum, Mork Gryning, Old Man´s Child, Vinterland, and Dawn. Lyrically, the band takes their nihilist black texts from the letters of Alonso Guzman (a well-known Mexican writer and a longtime friend of the band) and Sergio Campos.
Pantheon Arcanum is portraying the dark essence of the magic early '90s. Through demonic vocals, obscure and heavy sonic elements, alongside the help of some melodic passages that do not entomb the destructive and sharpened sound characteristic, they evoke the ancient rituals that have remained silent over the years. Listen for yourself, the entire opus is now available for streaming and you can hear it in the player below. link
