Twelve songs about ruin, and the band have put every one of them up at the same time: Crucivore released their debut album on 13 November through Testimony Records and the whole record is streaming.
They work in Lisbon and play death metal with brutal death and slam in it. Guitarist Sérgio Páscoa puts the subject plainly: "On this album, we explore themes of obliteration, ruin, possession, and the darkest aspects of human existence." Across the twelve tracks the band work through different forms of death, hallucination and apocalypse, in a world where nothing gets out.
Three songs came out of it before the record itself, the most recent of them in November.
The full album player is on the label's channel.
The album is their first, and it had three singles ahead of it rather than the usual one, which is how a band with no history gets heard at all. Crucivore are on the site with the record already in the catalogue, so the stream is the last piece of it.
Testimony Records carries them, and the label's channel holds the videos for "Depths of Despair" and "Devourer of Existence" as well as the full player.
