Finnish bestial black/death metal trio Hoc Est Bellum share new single

Time To Kill Records proudly announces the release of the debut full-length from HOC EST BELLUM, titled “Filth Majesty”, set for June 26, 2026.

Conceived as an act of ruthless sonic warfare, “Filth Majesty” descends with the force of dive bombers cutting through the sky, unleashing wave after wave of black-death devastation. Each track hits like a strafing run, relentless and unyielding, carving through silence with bursts of violence and scorched intensity.

Rejecting the sterile precision of modern production, HOC EST BELLUM embrace a warm, organic sound that feels immediate and physical, closer to the ground, closer to impact. The result is an album that breathes fire and dust, evoking hostile terrains and collapsing frontlines rather than polished surfaces.

There is no room for restraint in “Filth Majesty”. The record advances with militant purpose, channeling pure extremism into a barrage of riffs and percussive artillery. It is an uncompromising statement, where black metal’s venom and death metal’s crushing force converge into a single, destructive campaign.

The first single “Nightside Necromancy” is now available:

Burning with Luciferian hunger and baptized in nuclear horror, HOC EST BELLUM rose from the ashes in 2022. Based between Helsinki and Turku, the power trio unleashes a savage blend of grinding and bestial black/death chaos, channeling a sound that is both primitive and devastatingly direct. Their music thrives on raw aggression and ritualistic intensity, forged in an atmosphere of apocalyptic dread, satanic hostility and visions of mankind’s imminent extinction.

The band’s first release, the aptly titled “Demo 2023”, introduced this extermination squad to the underground with a display of feral brutality and uncompromising violence. The recording quickly established HOC EST BELLUM as a force devoted to the most extreme and unrelenting expressions of black/death metal, delivering warlike hymns steeped in filth, blasphemy and destructive fervor.

The band’s debut full-length will be released by Time To Kill Records in 2026. The album continues on the path of the bestial onslaught paved on the aforementioned demo, while adding to the relentless attack elements of dark atmospheric passages seeping with malevolent and poisonous aura.

Antichrist elitists rise. This is black metal terror.
