WEREWOLF RECORDS is proud to present MORGAL's highly
anticipated second album, The Seventh Circle, on CD,
vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats.
It was but five, seemingly-long years ago when Finland's
MORGAL finally released their debut album, Nightmare
Lord. That full-length had high expectations behind it,
given that the band's self-titled debut EP in 2018 had
burst these exceptionally young men (two members were
not yet in their 20s) onto the international metal map
with a blitzkrieg of excitement. Nightmare Lord, by
comparison, had reigned in a bit of MORGAL's original,
off-the-rails flavor in favor of stronger, more METAL
songwriting and a more polished & professional
production. Not for nothing did the legendary Joe
Petagno grace the album with exclusive cover artwork.
In the interim, MORGAL saw the arrival of two new
members: vocalist / bassist Tomb Nekrofiler and second
guitarist Kill-hammer. With founding members Crusher
(guitar) and SS Exiler (drums) anchoring the attack, the
now-quartet return with their second album, The Seventh
Circle. Ironically, this new blood has helped MORGAL
return to their sulfurous, blitzed-to-fuck origins -
only now, tempered with the ageless wisdom of heavy
metal. Right after its brief intro, The Seventh Circle
fucking ATTACKS and draws you down, a layer / circle at
a time, into an abyss of black metal magick that's more
incendiary than ever. The rhythm section goes way off
the rails, a maelstrom of INRI by way of Devil's Force,
but somehow sounds more deliberate in its intensity:
fully human and fully possessed, yes, but also fully
finessed. The twin-guitar attack truly intensifies
MORGAL's latently ripping-yet-melodic style, with both
six-stringers trading blood-boiling leads and solos with
gibbering abandon. And even with all this full-throttle
electricity, the quartet have honed their steel to
include well-timed downshifts into tundra-marching
territory. The album's six primary songs slay with a
memorability that's surprising given how relatively epic
they are in length - and again, with such bazooka-blown
power behind them.
Where MORGAL had drawn forth a blue-purple spirit on
their first full-length, with The Seventh Circle do they
squarely reside in the lungs of Hell: all fire, all the
fucking time.
