French heavy/gothic/doom metal act Invading Chapel to release new single »Spreading The Venom« on May 22nd!

French heavy/gothic/doom metal act Invading Chapel will release »Spreading The Venom«, a new single taken from their upcoming album, which is currently in preparation.

The track introduces the next step for the project, built around a dark and heavy sound that draws from classic doom weight, progressive structures and gothic atmosphere. With Loïc Malassagne handling vocals, bass, guitar and keyboards, alongside Jim D on drums, Invading Chapel shape their music through a compact line-up where heaviness and mood are central.

»Spreading The Venom« carries the band’s taste for slow-burning intensity and shadowed melody, placing the song between heavy metal foundations and darker, more atmospheric forms of rock and metal.

The single will be released on May 22nd, along with a lyric video.

In the meantime, you can listen to “»Foreshadowed«, the latest single released by the band!

Recorded, mixed and mastered by Loïc Malassagne at Pleine Lune Studio in 2026.
