Dopelord Announce New Album Songs For Satan, “Night of the Witch” Streaming Now
Man, the dudes in Polish doom metal band Dopelord are just begging the Polish authorities to slap them with a criminal charge of blasphemy of something, as they recently announced that their fifth studio effort will be titled “Songs For Satan.” With other artists like Behemoth’s Nergal regularly getting legally slapped in Poland for making “blasphemous” music, maybe Dopelord is just begging for trouble.
That or they either have great legal representation (or just just don’t give a fuck). Regardless, their new single “Night of the Witch” is exactly the kind of doomy, heavy goodness you’d expect from Dopelord. You can check that out below.
Set for release on October 6 via Blue Funeral Recordings here in the states, Songs For Satan is being touted as a “new chapter” in the band’s career. According to the band, the album “mines Polish Catholicism’s decades of oppression for lyrical fuel.” It’s sounding like this record’s going to be directly in defiance of the strong religious bent the country’s had in recent history.
Songs For Satan will be part of Blue Funeral Recordings’ PostWax series, which is a subscription service where exclusive limited edition vinyl releases and variants will be made available to members.
Still, whether you’re a PostWax member or not, you can pre-order a copy of the album today. And if you’re going to be in Europe this October, you can catch Dopelord live at any of the dates listed below.
