Devil Sold His Soul - Blessed & Cursed

Metal
Blessed & Cursed

Crushingly heavy, darkly atmospheric, emotionally poignant, and never less than utterly enthralling, Devil Sold His Soul combine devastating force and haunting melody in a unique and involving blend that is as hypnotic as it is moving.

In the six years since their inception, the band have inspired a passionate and devoted following in the UK underground, touring relentlessly and exercising an extreme level of quality control over their musical output, every release maintaining their signature sound while marking a profound leap forward from that which preceded it.  

It is the first time they have worked with an outside mixer in order to add some fresh ear and skill: Steve Evetts (Dillinger Escape Plan, Glassjaw, The Cure). Hence, it also made perfect sense to have Alan Douches master “Blessed & Cursed” at West West Side Music.

The record also marks the recording debut of drummer Leks Wood, who brings a new and exciting sense of dynamics to the band, and it sees them making the transition from tiny UK indie label Eyesofsound to metal giant Century Media.

With their career up until now firmly adhering to a DIY ethic, the band are poised to see their music placed before a worldwide audience and the kind of exposure they have long deserved.
