BLACK PASTEL - Blood Moon Empress

Atmospheric, raw and spell-binding black metal from the shadows of the Goddess realm, hauntingly mesmerising and furiously encaptivating, Black Pastel’s debut album is a true work of pure black metal art from the highest order. Cacophonous, contorted blackgaze and ambient black metal by this two piece band of Ghidorah May Star (guitar/vocals) and Scheherazade (drums/vocals). An album formed from the ashen sparks of colliding sheet noise riffs and effervescent atmospheric shimmer, imploding into a prism of bleakness, this is mystic black metal with a raw euphoria that straddles the sounds of Trha and Deafheaven, possessing something unique to itself?

Vinyl edition in collaboration with Rabauw and Third House Label. Released on Rabauw Records as part of Phantom Lure's curated series for the label.

Available on Splatter and Red Marbled vinyl
