We at THE SLUDGELORD are extremely delighted to present to you the
first single from the upcoming debut album by NIGHTFUCKER. These Canadian sludge/doom
rooted organ twisters are led by none other than Dominic Finnbow, formerly
known from the Lovecraftian UK sludge titans that was known as Moss. After relocating
over the Atlantic, Finnbow summoned a new set of mire dwelling lunatics around
him and forged the demon that is with us today. NIGHTFUCKER have meticulously explored the
deepest and most atrocious sewers of humanity over the last decade, yet the
band has released only one demo as a self-produced cassette, titled "Foul
Omens" prior to crafting their debut full-length, now getting it's
release through Sentient
Ruin and Rope or Guillotine.
While the odiously depicted creation
process took a long time, all the suffering, anguish and hate is audible. The
first single track, "Death Beset" clocks in at over eleven
minutes, and encapsulates the album well in all it's eulogised misery. The
atmosphere is very unforgiving, hypnotising loops are broken ever so often with
more driving, beating rhythms that'll make you gasp and twitch. If you're close
with the lead figures past works, you'll notice familiar resonances here and
there, but it goes without saying that NIGHTFUCKER is a being of it's own. That
being is a disgusting, bruised entity with a crust of filth obtained from the
aforementioned expeditions to the deepest ends of this planets cesspits.
Their self titled debut will be released
on July 12th and is available to preorder via Sentient Ruin (USA/ROW) HERE
and Rope or Guillotine (Europe) HERE
Give "Death Beset" a listen below with the volume maxed
out and watch your speaker die.
