NEW SKELETAL FACES NEW ALBUM UNTIL THE NIGHT OUT NOW

The new album from California death-rock trio New Skeletal Faces is out today. Titled Until The Night, the album delves deep into the forgotten, dark underbelly of rock and roll, taking inspiration from the blackened brutality of bands such as Bathory and Christian Death. Alongside the album release – the band’s first on the Peaceville label – New Skeletal Faces have also shared a new video for the track ‘Ossuary Lust’. Speaking about the new video, vocalist Errol Fritz said “Ossuary Lust was filmed at a chapel and cemetery we broke into. With the sorcery of the unholy on our side, no one prevented our blasphemic perverse rituals”. Filmed by Gaberealhell. Directed and edited by Gaberealhell and New Skeletal Faces. Featuring Chlobra. Check it out here:

Aardschok – 82/100 “a very commendable album”

Metal.it – “Can black metal be combined with ’80s dark rock? For this trio, the answer is an absolute yes”

Metallerium – “an album that is well balanced within that distressing sound and with a lot of darkness in between”

RockHard – 8/10 “There are records that catch you with the first notes, and “Until The Night” is one of them…the album is a banger”

Musikreviews.de – 11/15 “deliberately ugly and offensive – darkness as an inevitable lifestyle instead of a pose”

Legacy – 13/15 “The songs are simple, effective, organic and exude an energy that we haven’t heard in a long time. So scary and beautiful. … Creatures of the night, gather and dance, because this is where your music plays!”

Sonic Seducer – “The original times, the eighties, are revived without appearing dusty or copied. An album, impetuous, unbridled, unironized, full of anger…”

Miserable Metal Mind – “channels the spirits of old school metal with the gothic aesthetics of Christian Death blended with the black metal of Bathory”

AVAILABLE ON: LIMITED EDITION ‘STARLIGHT’ SPARKLE VINYL, BLACK VINYL (BOTH INCLUDE ADDITIONAL POSTER AND SPECIAL GOLD FOIL FINISH ON FRONT COVER), CD AND DIGITALLY

NEW SKELETAL FACES SHARE DETAILS OF NEW ALBUM

UNTIL THE NIGHT (1st November)

After recently announcing their signing with Peaceville, California death-rockers New Skeletal Faces are back with a new single and details of their upcoming album, Until The Night.

The single, also titled ‘Until The Night’, premiered at Decibel Magazine and is the first track from the band’s Peaceville debut, delving deep into the forgotten, dark underbelly of rock and roll. “Until The Night is about the ritualistic deviancies partaken by the lost souls of our planet” the band say. “It’s an anthem for the heathens that plague the night.” The album, recorded and mixed by Bill Metoyer (Slayer/W.A.S.P.), is set for release on November 1st.

Alongside the single comes a raucous new video directed by Gaberealhell. Speaking about the video, the band said, “The video for “Until The Night” captures the true essence of the song and lifestyle of the band. Done with little planning and no storyboard, you can feel the uncertain, spontaneous atmosphere”.

The band’s Peaceville debut, Until The Night (which follows in the path of 2019‘s Celestial Disease full-length release) further enriches New Skeletal Faces’ effortless blending of the spirits of old; with the seductive & spellbinding gothic prowess of bands such as Christian Death fused with the raw unbridled energy of early Swedish black metal legend, Bathory to create a bold new statement of intent, in stark contrast to the often overly-refined polish of contemporary metal. Until the Night is, as a result, something more akin to listening to the 1980’s Sunset Strip in an alternate universe from hell.

NEW SKELETAL FACES ARRIVE ON PEACEVILLE

NEW ALBUM ‘UNTIL THE NIGHT’ SET FOR RELEASE LATER THIS YEAR

It’s been 7 years since US Death Rock’s new rising sensation New Skeletal Faces arrived on our planet and embedded themselves in the seedy outlying corners of the Southern Californian music scene. Today, Peaceville are excited to announce that the California trio have signed to the label and will be releasing their new album Until The Night later this year.

Upon signing, New Skeletal Faces said “We are honoured to be joining the Peaceville roster and believe that there is no better asylum for NSF. Being alongside the most intense artists this earth has procreated, we look forward to this camaraderie in spreading our diseased view on what the darkness in Rock ‘n’ Roll should be”.

Formed in 2017, the trio of Errol Fritz, KRO, & Don Void present themselves as a cosmic abomination that tote the genre lines between all manners of darkness in music. New Skeletal Faces cast their own black light onto the long dormant corpse of Death Rock, shattering the mirror of modern Heavy Metal into fragments that reflect back a fresh new take on this form of music with an energised & outlandish conviction.

With a string of electrifying live performances showcasing their wild and untamed personalities already under their collective belts, & with the band gaining more and more steam with each transmission, New Skeletal Faces will take to the stage in support of the release of ‘Until the Night’ with the following release shows:
