The words squirm and writhe upon the page, like a cold nest of serpents exposed to the dawn light. Each character twisting and changing, unwilling to be held to a form or meaning…and then they lock and my eyes scan across the lines and secrets rise like mist and bleed into my eyes. Too late to look away, too late, too late. My sanity crumbles as the path of fire materialises before me. Things no one should know fill my mind, whispers of wickedness beyond understanding. This is what I sought, craved, what I thought I desired beyond everything. But I am too weak a vessel for this ancient truth. My soul is extinguished, my spirit atrophied, I am hollow and empty. A lich condemned to darkness.
Hailing from Calgary, Canada, Cultist are purveyors of ugly, disturbing death metal, taking graveyard dirt and headbanging rhythms and infusing them with the essence of warped, interstellar madness and a dusting of ancient rites and forgotten spells. Mystification zine praised their 2022 debut album, Manic Despair, for its ‘righteous, punishing aggression’ and ‘brutally thrashed death metal cruelty’, looking forward to what the future might bring for this band who balanced that instinctive hook-laden heaviness with dizzying, otherworldly aesthetics so adeptly. Well the future is now and the time for conjecture is over…Cultist are back, with their new album – Spiritual Atrophy!
