U.S. Black Metal outfit SEV LEZU will release their self-titled debut album, Blood Conscript, August 28 on vinyl, cassette, and digital formats via Ordovician Records.
“Blood Conscript,” the eponymous single, is out now and streaming on Ampwall and Bandcamp.
Blood Conscript, recorded at Artifact Audio by drummer, vocalist, lyricist, and producer Sasha Stroud (Belexum, Onw), spins a cursed and bloody tale of dark, ancient mythology, a hateful pantheon, and ensanguined revenge. Guitarist Melissa Moore (Crossspitter, Sonja) and bassist FW (Manat)--along with guest guitarist/songwriter Mia Priest (ex-Impiety) on the track “Corpse Step”--join Stroud to realize SEV LEZU’s strict creative vision: GRINDING, MELODIC BLACK DEATH. An unrelenting force of misanthropic darkness, SEV LEZU rises to kill!
“Me and the dolls made real black metal. The rest can fuck off and burn in hellfire.” - Melissa Moore
Born in 2022, NYC/Philly/PNW black metal outfit SEV LEZU delivers sonic malignancy rooted in the sounds of old, with musicality drawing from the frigid majesty of the Swedish tradition (à la Dissection, Bathory) and Finnish institutions Sargeist, Horna, and Satanic Warmaster, all channeled through the grinding rhythmic violence of Terrorizer and Nasum, the warhorse charge of Iron Maiden, and the sharpness and percussive dynamism of Death’s final records.
