Unearthing The Occult Rock Underground

For this week’s edition of Unearthing the Metal Underground we’ll take a look at a style that is generally less heavy than our normal offerings, but still of interest to the average metal fan.

Satanic or occult rock bands such as Ghost and Blood Ceremony have been landing recording deals and making it toward the forefront of the metal scene lately, even though their music falls less on the extreme side of the spectrum. Something about the themes and the arrangement of the music calls out to metal lovers though, whether it’s the invocations to Satan to bring about the end or just simply the catchy tunes.

This week we’ll be unearthing three bands who may go about it in slightly different ways, but all of these groups evoke the mood and tone of a different time, not to mention of something supernatural and slightly sinister.

The Devil’s Blood

Dutch female-fronted act The Devil’s Blood has been gaining momentum over the last year since the release of the full-length album “The Time of No Time Evermore” (reviewed here). Clearly drawing on the pioneers and rock acts from the ‘60s and ‘70s, The Devil’s Blood infuses its sound with more of a modern aesthetic and clearer production, which can be heard on the band’s MySpace page.

You can also check out an interview Metalunderground.com conducted with the Devil’s Blood here, or listen to several songs in the players below.

The Devil's Blood Cancels Upcoming Shows

The Devil's Blood has issued the following update about canceling the band's previously scheduled shows in Berlin, Prague, Vienna, and Budapest:

"Rituals for Berlin, Prague, Vienna, and Budapest canceled. Due to unforeseen and unavoidable circumstances The Devil's Blood cannot perform the Rituals in the above mentioned cities. All these rituals will (hopefully) be re-scheduled somewhere in early 2011.

"We regret this but see no other options. We will still be attending this year's Speedfest edition in Eindhoven which will also be the official closing of the festival season which brought us all across Europe (Hellfest, PartySan, Wacken, Armageddon Fest etc etc) and even made it possible for us to make our debut appearance in Canada at the Noctis festival. It has been a year of total victory and we applaud the many maniacs who attended all our celebrations and joined us in Darkness and Lust! Hail Satan!"
