“Praise The Plague is a black metal band with a dark and devouring doom attitude. The five-piece from Berlin is creating a depressing atmosphere, carried by heavy, sludgy doom. Their live performances are all about atmosphere and a massive wall of sound.”

In 2021 the five-piece signed a new deal with Lifeforce Records, releasing »The Obsidian Gate« on July 30th. The sound evolved into a faster, more atmospheric, yet still depressing black metal. This record would show new depths, and paved the way into a new era. Bringing »The Obsidian Gate« on stage, Praise The Plague supported known acts like Wolves In The Throne Room and Gaerea, played next to bands like Firtan, Phantom Winter, E.L.R. and A Aecret Revealed.
With their latest release »Suffocating In The Current Of Time«, out via Lifeforce Records on February 16th 2024, Praise The Plague continue their sound of atmopheric black metal, enhancing it with an aggressive and frustrated attitude.
