Hidden Gems & Guilty Pleasures: Demonslaught 666 (China)
Demonslaught 666 (Black/Speed Metal, China)
Deeply inspired musically by the ancient gods such as Venom, Bathory and Sodom, and aesthetically by the new generation such as Hellripper, Bütcher and Diabolic Night, guitarist Evilslaughter formed Demonslaught 666 in 2020.
In June 2021, the debut EP »Speed Alcoholic Evil« drew the attention of underground metal fans to Demonslaught 666, and in November of the same year they released a seven-inch split »Raven and the Slaughterer« with the Canadian thrash metallers Chaos Century with the new track »Black Evil Steel«. Critically acclaimed sophomore EP »Nekroslaughter Battlefield« came out in November 2022 and features five songs that are more aggressive than their previous releases.
»Endless Witchcraft« was released on April 6th, 2024 through Awakening Records. Go grab your copy now!!! CD | Digital
Now, Demonslaught 666’s debut album »Endless Witchcraft« is available! With this album, the band attempts to paint a picture of witches, black magic, and human desire, and continue the band’s “Witching Metal” aesthetic. As a result, fans of traditional heavy metal, thrash metal, and even black metal will find their high points on this album.
This long-explored and meticulously crafted heavy metal sword was mixed and mastered by renowned German audio engineer Marco Brinkmann (Vulture, Stallion, Cruel Force) at Hellforge Studio. The cover artwork was painted by the talented Italian artist Velio Josto (Enforcer, Warlord, Riot V).
