New Offerings From Candlelight USA’s Cult Series: ZATOKREV, NINE COVENS and KONTINUUM

The following titles will be unleashed under the Candlelight USA Cult Series imprint January 8th, 2013…

ZATOKREV | The Bat The Wheel And The Long Road To Nowhere

The Bat The Wheel And The Long Road To Nowhere is the third full-length from Swiss death/doom conjurors ZATOKREV. Their self-dubbed “sludge-apocalypse” takes you on an transcendental musical journey that clocks in over an hour in length and features lyrics sung in English, Czech, and Slovak. Metal Review says the album, “oozes confidence. This is a band that can reach the upper echelons,” while The New Review notes: “ZATOKREV skillfully play on emotion to deliver their mournful message. It’s a seriously heavy, seriously depressing doom-fest.”

NINE COVENS | On The Dawning Of Light

On The Dawning Of Light is the second album from rising London-based underground black metal band NINE COVENS and their first with proper distribution in North America. NINE COVENS came together to explore the darker, more brooding aspects of black metal and in doing so have created a virulent, belligerent and passionate account of the weakness that exists in humanity. NINE COVENS offer a sonic confrontation to the eternally weak and all who follow without question to reflect on themselves and consider an alternative. Named after noted English witch/magician George Pickingill, NINE COVENS shroud their identities to focus on the music.
