SONNEILLON The Demon of Hate CD

Hailing from the dark heart of the Portuguese underground, Sonneillon delivers a devastating blow with their full-length album The Demon of Hate, released through the uncompromising Nekrogoat Heresy Productions. This work is a definitive manifestation of Black Metal, characterized by a violent, chaotic, and deeply ritualistic atmosphere that has become a hallmark of the band's identity. The Demon of Hate is an unrelenting assault of blasphemy and sonic terror. The music is built on a foundation of swarming, dissonant riffs and a battering percussion that creates a sense of constant, suffocating pressure. Vocally, the album is a tour de force of demonic possession, featuring guttural roars and harrowing shrieks that perfectly channel the hateful themes of the record. Unlike many bands that prioritize speed alone, Sonneillon excels at shifting between blistering tempos and mid-paced, cavernous sections that allow the dark, occult melodies to seep through like a slow-acting poison. As a Nekrogoat Heresy release, the production remains loyal to the underground spirit—raw, thick, and pulsating with a malevolent energy that feels organic rather than artificial. This CD is an essential acquisition for fans of the Lusitanian black/death tradition and for those who follow the path of bands like Proclamation, Teitanblood, or early Archgoat. It stands as a powerful testament to the enduring strength and darkness of the Portuguese extreme metal scene.
