DEVIL MASTER Announce U.S. Headlining Fall Tour!
Supernatural psych/black metal virtuosos DEVIL MASTER dropped their darkest, and filthiest LP Bloody Dreams last Friday via Relapse. Today they've announced their U.S. Fall headlining tour which kicks off October 28 at NYC's Saint Vitus. The run hits East Coast, West Coast, the Midwest and more. See below for a full list of dates. Tickets are on sale now, HERE.
DEVIL MASTER usher in their ghastly, boot-tapping spectacle without permission into our unreality. Written entirely by Darkest Prince between the vellichor pages of decadence and time’s cruel hand, Bloody Dreams is an album that deceives. Up front, Bloody Dreams rages, mohawks and pale skin thumbing through the detritus of 17th-century graveyards. As it matures, it devolves, splaying minds into absinthe-laced psychosis and the untidiest of silhouettes.
Newcomers to Devil Master are urged to feel the presence of Darkest Prince’s words. They’re encouraged to let go of modern constructs, of life framed by “information everywhere,” to set foot in and breathe the otherworld of Prince invoking Baudelaire, Ducasse, et al. Musically, Devil Master peel back the layers of black metal and punk, finding the root of evil in folk music. Indeed, a casual ear towards “Black Flame Candle” and “Devil Is Your Master” (both from 2019’s Satan Spits on Children of Light), as well as “The Vigour of Evil” and “Acid Black Mass” (both from Ecstasies of Never Ending Night) will hear upbeats, repetition, and occasionally, hope. Since forming in 2015, the crux of Devil Master has been blurring the lines between dark and light, misery and aspiration.
Mastered by Arthur Rizk and engineered by Davis M. Shubs and Grammy-nominated engineer Eric Bogacz, Bloody Dreams dances darkly. Guests include Mirai Kawashima (Sigh), former drummer Chris Ulsh (Power Trip), and Ur Èmdr Œrvn (Arkha Sva) who enhance Devil Master’s supernatural power.
There is no shadow without light… Bloody Dreams invites you into and out of the abyss.
