Hellbutcher's "Inferno's Rage" video now unleashed upon the world • GRIMM Gent

HELLBUTCHER is pleased to unleash their fiery new video for “Inferno’s Rage.” The track comes by way of the band’s self-titled debut, released last Friday via Metal Blade Records.

As the frontman of legendary Swedish maniacs Nifelheim, Hellbutcher stands among the most elite figures of the black metal underground, and with his eponymous new band, HELLBUTCHER, his frenzied mission continues conjuring sounds of pure blasphemy and absolute musical Armageddon.

Teaming up with old compadres in evil, guitarists Necrophiliac and Iron Beast, bassist Eld, and drummer Devastator (ex-Nifelheim), HELLBUTCHER quickly set about bringing their new vision to life. Recording in various locations around Sweden, such as Devastator‘s own Red And Black Hall Drum Studio and Iron Beast‘s Chrome Studios, and producing and mastering everything themselves – “No need for an outside producer since we knew exactly how our band should sound” – it is a record that stands proud and unambiguous as a work or pure, metallic mayhem.

From the album’s opener, the crazed “The Sword Of Wrath,” HELLBUTCHER‘s intent is loud and clear: Channeling the spirit of Venom, Bathory, Iron Maiden, Exciter, Motörhead, Mercyful Fate, and the aggressive spirit of true heavy metal. It’s an explosion of diabolic evil, performed relentlessly by true masters of the form.

Notes Hellbutcher on “Inferno’s Rage,”

“This one holds a special place because, unlike other songs, I wasn’t part of the music-writing process; I solely penned the lyrics. Guitarist Necrophiliac took charge of crafting this song. I’ve known him since the early ’90s, and his musical style aligns closely with mine. This track stands as proof that he understands the very essence of HELLBUTCHER! ‘Inferno’s Rage’ is an unrelenting onslaught of speed, coupled with touches of heavy metal in certain parts. It also shows the insane drumming of Devastator who is acknowledged as one of the best drummers in the metal scene!“

With an enviable musical pedigree and a killer album to their name, HELLBUTCHER is certain to scorch a mark onto the black metal scene. “I believe this band has the potential to surpass Nifelheim; we’ve accomplished more in a year than I did in the last decade with Nifelheim,” Hellbutcher states. “The key difference lies in the fact that this band shares a common goal. I am now filled with tremendous inspiration, and I plan to create new songs, records, and gigs at a completely different pace than before.“

Insisting in so many words that posers should die, and promising that their live shows “will be a neck-breaking experience,” the underground is about to be hit with an outbreak of evil unlike anything it has seen for a long time. Time to turn the cross upside down: HELLBUTCHER is here, and they mean evil business.
