CASTLE "Evil Remains" [12" LP, Electric Blue/Marbled Vinyl]
2024 - Heavy/Doom from United States
Detailed Description
The high priests of sinister doom return with "Evil Remains", their sixth album and first for Hammerheart Records! "Evil Remains" is a hook-laden Heavy Metal thrill-ride into Nosferatu nights! Back after a six year break with the black magic fully recharged, Castle has delivered a juggernaut of riffery in a hook-laden mix of doom and psychedelictinged classic metal. Adding to the atmosphere of majestic doom, Elizabeth Blackwell's haunted, full-blooded vocals are electric witch hymns of death and madness. Recorded at Raincity Recorders in Vancouver B.C. by producer Jesse Gander (Anciients, 3 Inches Of Blood, Brutus) "Evil Remains" sonically balances the warm and fuzzy with the bombastic power of an alternate universe stadium rock band. "Evil Remains" delivers a metallic knock out punch from the first to the last note of its eight pummeling tracks. Written over a five year period - beginning in Castle's then home town of Joshua Tree, Since storming out of San Francisco with their 2011 debut, "In Witch Order", Castle has toured relentlessly, playing close to 700 shows on three continents.
