Sithter to Release Chaotic Fiend Dec. 9

sithter

Japanese extreme sludgers Sithter will release their second full-length, Chaotic Fiend, through Bonten Records on Dec. 9. Ahead of the album coming out, they’re set to hit the road next month alongside Serbian doomers Heretic Rites for a week-long string of shows in Japan, and ahead of that, they have the new song “Masque of the Black Death” streaming now. If you think that’s a lot of preparing the ground, I can’t argue, but as you can hear in the new track, it’s weighted, coated in filth and stripped raw enough to make one think that the ground — and the audience’s eardrums — might need some preparation. All the better they’re getting it.

Preorders are up now through the label. The PR wire fills in the details:

Japan’s sonic death sludge masters SITHTER to release new album Chaotic Fiend | Stream and share new song ‘Masque Of The Black Death’

Chaotic Fiend by Sithter is released on 9th December through Bonten Records, pre-order here: https://bontenrecords.bandcamp.com/album/chaotic-fiend

Originally formed in 2006 under the name PsychoToBlack, after numerous personnel changes, a handful of filed missing person reports and a ritual or two in the black arts, Tokyo’s Sithter eventually emerged, dragged into sunlight.

Influenced by the traditional sludge metal of bands like Grief, Eyehategod and Buzzoven, after leaving his previous outfit MONE¥I$GOD in 2007, guitarist Hyö “Noise Fucker” Kagawa brought with him experiments in doom and dark psychedelia, alongside drummer Takefumi Matsuda and vocalist/guitarist Hiroyuki Takano. Completed by the arrival of newest member Wahei Gotoh on bass in 2013 – kidnapped from the heavy cosmic rock band Dhidalah – the quartet quickly became masters of the “Sonic Death Sludge” sound.

Following the release of 2009’s The Last Temptation EP, their first full-length album Evilfucker on the Russian doom label Bad Road Records and a split with Seoul-based death metal trio Gonguri last year, this December will see the release of Chaotic Fiend on Bonten Records. The inaugural taste of which can be sampled via the track ‘Masque Of The Black Death’, a poisonous and molasses thick assault on all senses.
