Rebel Wizard Re-Issuing "Triumph Of Gloom" Album

Negative metal act Rebel Wizard will reissue the maniacal sounds of the "Triumph Of Gloom" full-length via Prosthetic Records next month.

A creation from Australian musician NKSV, who's most well-known for his work with the black metal/noise group Nekrasov, Rebel Wizard's delivery is difficult to sum up with one simple label. While containing traces of black and thrash metal roots, with a touch of NWOBHM and the epicness of power metal, NKSV has coined the term "negative metal" to describe Rebel Wizard's unique output.

Negative metal, as defined by NKSV, is an, "anarchic alchemical process of outsider energies respecting the power of traditional triumphant metal into a unique sound to smash out the coerced gloom and banality of our times." The term is not meant to be construed with the sense of depression or nihilism, but instead to focus on self-negation, a doing away of limiting one's full potential by limiting oneself to a category or label.

The "Triumph Of Gloom" album, initially self-released by NKSV, will be reissued by Prosthetic Records on February 24th and will include a previously unheard bonus track, "Defenders Of The Gloom."
