Satyrus: Argonauta Release of Rites Available to Preorder

satyrus

This should be a pretty familiar story by now in that here’s a band who released a cool album last Spring. And, well… last Spring happened. Last Spring definitely happened in Italy, and it happened pretty much everywhere. So maybe you didn’t catch Satyrus‘ Rites (review here) the first time through and thus you missed out on its cult-worship-meets-’90s-doom vibes, drawing of course from Sabbath but also such righteous progeny as Electric WizardCorrosion of Conformity and even Alice in Chains along its lumbering course.

Bottom line here? Cool record, worth the revisit. Argonauta has stepped up to put it out on May 28, and they have preorders up now. You can also stream Rites through the band’s own Bandcamp, or if you’re not feeling like diving all the way in at once, the label has “Stigma” up on its own through YouTube. They’re making it easy, folks.

Sicily occult doom metal heavy weights, SATYRUS, who just recently signed a worldwide record deal with Argonauta Records, have revealed more album details about their first full-length album!

The four-piece self-released their debut Rites in March 2020, when they quickly gained the attention by several labels and heavy doom metal fans around the globe. Now, Argonauta Records is going to release the album as CD and Digital formats on May 28, 2021, and added a new track to their label channel.

Featuring members of bands alike Malauriu or Wolvesguard, SATYRUS invites its listener on a slow and dark ride into the abyss of doom heaviness. The band members‘ backgrounds allow them to create a wider field in between the doom, black metal, psych and progressive sounds to classic and occult metal.

“Rites is an album that digs into the old school occult music influenced by the likes of such as Coven, Black Widow or Sabbath, but with kinda new fuzzy sound, some black metal atmosphere and, especially our love for the occult. ” The band states. “We hope you enjoy our sound and the ones who decide to buy this record, will be surrounded by pure and lysergic dark and heavy music.”

2. Shovel
3. Swirl
