ANGEL OF DAMNATION specialize in witching classic-style doom. Perhaps not surprisingly, it all comes courtesy of a quartet of underground diehards, including FRONT BEAST mainman Avenger on guitar, the rhythm section of Cross Vault (drummer Skullsplitter and Avenger also play in longtime cult faves Nocturnal), and prolific vocalist Gerrit Mutz (Sacred Steel, Battleroar, Dawn of Winter) under the ever-apt handle Doomcult Messiah. Together, they created the cult debut Carnal Philosophy, released in 2011. Those who had the opportunity to hear it thrilled to the aeons-old metal magick across its concise-yet-expansive 37 minutes. But now, with Heathen Witchcraft, ANGEL OF DAMNATION have perfected their style in a most haunting manner.
Like some lost relic of the NWOBHM, on Heathen Witchcraft, true to its title, ANGEL OF DAMNATION purge the witchfinder generals and celebrate the old-world splendor of medieval witchery. And compared to the no-less-considerable debut, on LP#2 do they create even longer and more enveloping epics which both firmly establish a fog-choked atmosphere and dispense with time-honored metal classicism. Of course, the album begins most spookily, hitting a fever pitch of harrowing horror on the title track, and then successively builds into (and finishes) with moody, galloping hard-chargers like "Lord of the Seven Churches" and "Tear Off the Veil of the Sun." Through it all, Doomcult Messiah is in top form, seemingly narrating these dark events in realtime.

And all that you hear is his voice The burst and the thunder, the noise The beating of unbroken wings And all that you smell is his fire The burning, the funeral pyre, The chanting of archaic hymns Shake off the dust from your bones This is your body, your hell and your home Do what thou wilt under love Heaven belongs crucified as the dove You are the fist and the thought You are the reason that this flight is fought Tear off the veil of your soul Unite with the shadows forevermore... Come and fly with me Through spirals of dreams never seen Beyond the black pillars of time Come and walk with with me Over fields that they graze while they sleep Brainwashed and deaf, dumb and blind Tear Off the Veil of the Sun Gaze to the sky and you'll see we are one Right with the wind and the storm Behold our creation, perfection reborn The beauty of nature unbound Breath in the glory, the sight and the sound You really still need one more proof Harken the beating, the kick of the hooves Tear Off the Veil of the Sun
