59:10 Release Notes:



Through a haze of ever-bleaker dopesmoke the black

titans of underground doom, Electric Wizard, rise

from the unholy grave once again!



With their new LP Black Masses the legendary

Dorset bongsmokers delve deeper into the dark

world of the occult and narcosatanism. Down, down

further into drugs and hate, to the sleazy shadowy

world of the blackest masses to the true

inspiration of the heavy metal art... Lucifer!!!



With Black Masses, Electric Wizard return to the

true source of all that is heavy and evil, this is

their 'Lucifer Rising'; a mind-melting

hallucinogenic nightmare of drug paranoia and

misanthropic death wishes.... All in the name of

Satan!!!



Some say blessed by the Devil Himself, Electric

Wizard have been riding a black wave of success

since the release of 'Witchcult Today' in 2007 and

have played sold out shows across continental

Europe, Scandinavia, the UK and Japan, thrilling

audiences with their incendiary and apocalyptic

live performances, culminating in near iconic

status amongst true fanatics and devotees of HEAVY

music.



And now they offer you their greatest work and

bleakest art in unholy thanks...



From the psychedelic swamp of the ravens they

summon 8 hymns of pulsating necro-doom, an

unbelievable wizards brew of early acid rock

psychedelia, 1970's heavy metal and early 80's

satanic metal, distilled through endless loops of

exploitation horror cinema, supersleazy 70's

necroporn and, inevitably, chronic and habitual

drug abuse...



Effortlessly they weave a web of evil with unholy

strands of pure doom metal and deliriously

compelling narcopop evil. Designed to ensnare the

youth of today as mindless slaves of their

addictive drug: Doom. All this packaged in a

revolting eye-searing nightmare of tasteless

pop-art trash!!



Yes, Black Masses is a trip through every aspect

of everything that's cool about underground

drug-rock from the head-spinning Satanic

Psychedelia of Patterns of Evil through to the

NWOBHM on LSD churning of Turn off your Mind.

Black Masses is the album Electric Wizard always

threatened to make. It's here, and listening to

the end of the world was never meant to sound this

good!



Recorded once more in the 100% analogue

surroundings of Toerag Studios, London. Produced

by Liam Watson.



Hail Satan!!
