Worm has incessantly built upon their sonic palette of ‘Necromantic Black Doom’, with roots in nearly every worthy corner of extreme metal’s history - from the grandiose heights of ‘90s symphonic black metal to the emotional technicality of ‘80s shred metal. Today Worm emerge with their next studio album and first release with Century Media Records, Necropalace. The Floridian band have only grown more powerful, showcasing a level of grandiose songcraft that is beyond modern compare. On Necropalace, Worm has managed to do what many others in this day and age can only attempt: They walk backwards into the future.
Necropalace lives in a world of its own. A world of lush velvet and ostentatious gold, covered in the dust of time. A world where shadows seem to move in your peripheral vision, yet the loneliness never ceases. A world where wounds of the flesh may heal, but those of the heart never do.
Alongside the release of Necropalace, Worm have revealed part three of the album’s official music video series and opulent closer, “Witchmoon - The Infernal Masquerade (Feat. Marty Friedman)” which was created by Worm’s Phantom Slaughter via his production company, Nightfang Productions. Of the video he states, “You are seduced to the macabre lands of the ‘Necropalace’! The powers of the ancients call your name. Soon the sun sets on Castle Ravenblood and the dead shall rise. The Count knows no mercy. You must be prepared before the darkness consumes you…"
For the trilogy’s first and second parts (“Necropalace” and “Blackheart”), Worm teamed up with Director Norman Cabrera (Danzig, Walking Dead, Fright Night II), Producer Maya Kay, Colorist Alex Nicolaou (Drab Majesty), all with direction from Ted Nicolaou (TerrorVision, Subspecies) to bring Worm’s dark fantasy into a reality.
Necropalace is truly the sonic representation of unbridled nightbound maleficence! The album manifests itself as the soundscape to a star laden winter night sky reflecting off the Everglades’ darkest slough; where death meets the deathless. This album is a vociferous call to action for anyone who still possesses ancient vampiric blood in their veins. Prepare yourself for a full force attack of zealous guitar agility and heretic spellcraft. The gates are now open.
Rise now, for the night is nigh!
Necropalace, produced by Charlie Koryn (Morbid Angel) and mixed / mastered by Arthur Rizk (King Diamond, Blood Incantation, Sumerlands, Cavalera, Soulfly), is available today in stores and across all digital platforms via Century Media.
