NEWS: Serpent God want Inverse Records to repent!

Does it feel a little surreal to be talking about an album with a 10th October release date in May? Yes! But for Serpent God we’ll make an exception. The Finnish Melodic Death infused Doom Metal band have unveiled “Repent” as the first burnt offering from their album “Denial” which Inverse Records will distribute. The story goes that trio of musicians from Se, josta ei puhuta in drummer Jimi Myöhänen, bassist Juho-Pekka Lappalainen and vocalist, guitars and keyboardist Samu Männikkö had written a wealth of material that didn’t fit into the style of their main squeeze – but was too good to be simply archived. Instead they formed a new project in 2023 with foundations in Extreme Metal but also taking on influences in Post-Rock, Doom and avant-garde.

The band comments: “The sound of hooves stomp the ground. The Apocalypse is coming”. “repent” is a conjoined train of melodic themes and fatal intentions heading to it’s final destination. The tracks are straightforward and sinuous simultaneously. A delicate scent of classic rock combined with 90’s extreme metal sound with nearly biblical lyrics. Haunting guitar leads with unexpected twists and turns. “When the thickest mist is rising, it is time to repent!”
