Drawing inspiration from early 2000s metalcore bands like UNDEROATH and NORMA JEAN and blending it with their own brand of hyper-melodic black metal, SPIDER GOD have created their most catchy and furious album to date. Blastbeats give way to breakdowns at every turn, infectious melodic guitar lines working in tandem with G’s trademark growl, and live strings are introduced for the first time to create a symphony of madness.
The album continues a concept introduced on their previous album, ‘The Killing Room’, in which a hapless gamer becomes ensnared in a deadly VR experience, and the lyrics weave together true crime murder cases with fictional elements to bring the story to its epic conclusion.
Recorded and mixed by Zach Weeks at GOD CITY STUDIOS and mastered by Magnus Lindberg of CULT OF LUNA, ‘Possess the Devil’ propels SPIDER GOD to the next level sonically and lyrically.
