Morcolac – Sanguinaria CD

Morcolac – 'Sanguinaria' CD

Jewel case CD edition

Italy's Morcolac returns in 2025 with the third chapter in the Morcolac saga, a powerful continuation of their vision of frostbitten, symphonic black metal steeped in raw aggression and fantasy-driven atmosphere. Drawing heavy influence from the late '90s Nordic black metal scene, particularly the Finnish symphonic tradition, Morcolac channels the dark majesty and melodic gloom of Vargrav, and Warmoon Lord. Yet, beneath the majestic synths lies a foundation of pure old-school black metal: raw, malevolent, and uncompromising. Morcolac delivers a compelling balance, atmospheric and melodic, yet cold and feral. Through immersive lyrics and icy riffs, the listener is transported to dark forests, cursed strongholds, and grim fantasy realms, where evil creatures lurk and the light has long since faded. If you're a fan of melodic yet raw black metal and crave an escape into the mystical and the malevolent, Morcolac’s third album is essential listening.
