»Cult Of Oblivion« builds on the metal path forged by the band’s previous release »Decimator«, and brings forth a darker and heavier sound than their previous releases.

»Cult Of Oblivion« was engineered and mixed by James Gazerro at The Red Room in Attleboro, MA. Mastering by Brad Boatright of AudioSiege.

Hailing from the outskirts of Boston, Massachusetts, Oxblood Forge brings a penchant for roundhouse kicking the listener in the face with their own special sauce of heavy metal with a generous helping of classic rock, doom, and blues. The band aims for big hooks, destructive vocals, and heavy guitars.

Oxblood Forge recently completed a successful east coast tour with Spiral Grave and Mourn The Light, playing shows recently with Anvil, Manilla Road, and Magic Circle, and keeping the flame alive for heavy metal.

Oxblood Forge is:
Kenneth MacKay – Vocals
Robb Lioy – Lead Guitar
Greg Delleria – Bass
Erik Fraunfelter – Drums
Steve Nelson – Rhythm Guitar

“Those who love 70’s/80’s influenced heavy metal with nods to doom, stoner, even classic rock or thrash nuances, get ready for some solid, crushing material here.” 8.5/10 – Dead Rhetoric

“Aggressive and unafraid to experiment, Oxblood Forge’s new EP is a reminder that even with a massive resurgence in popularity, traditional heavy metal can still surprise. It’s weird and rough-edged, and I’m all for it.” – Invisible Oranges

“Oxblood Forge are really bringing the ferocity to their thrashy heavy doom, and it is incredibly refreshing.” – The Killchain

“These four songs kick it, making the EP a good get. Recommended.” – Flying Fiddlesticks

“The band plays with several nuances of heavy, doom and thrash metal, which is why it is interesting in itself, in addition to having taken that step forward that we expected from the previous album.” – Metallerium

“It’s the culmination of seven years of experience in genre blending cryptic writings, the search for big riffs and scathing lyrics never far from their minds.” – Metal Noise
