CASTLE – Streaming New Track

Already reaping advance praise from critics, Slug Magazine notes, “Welcome To The Graveyard is evocative of the heavy music I grew up on. ‘Black Widow’ is almost as if Lemmy’s wraith returned to Motörhead for one last reunion track, epitomized through a youthful throat. Often, a doom metal group attempts to reach back into the Book Of The Dead and revive a slice of the style only to sound like a hopeless knock-off. CASTLE exemplify our generation’s appreciation for the metal genre’s foundation while providing a multitude of unique and eclectic intricacies that make their sound distinctive.” In a 4.5/5 rating, Metal Riot names Welcome To The Graveyard,” a must own heavy metal purchase for 2016,” furthering, “Through constant touring and refining of their bluesy witchy minimalist but raw powered thrash these champs of heavy metal bang for your buck have only gotten better with each release.” Offers The Obelisk of their recent performance at the Maryland Doomfest, “They’re the kind of band who could make you believe in heavy metal… their righteously individualized blend of thrash, traditional metal, doom, heavy rock ‘n’ roll, etc., speaks to some mystical bygone era when metal was about not compromising, putting a fist in the air against expectation and going on tour forever. CASTLE were so deep into what they were doing that I think they could’ve been anywhere and it would’ve been the same, that trance taking hold early on as they locked in and holding sway for the duration of their set, which seemed short when it was over.”

In advance of the release of Welcome To The Graveyard, Cvlt Nation is currently offering “Down In The Cauldron Bog” for public appreciation. Elaborates vocalist Elizabeth Blackwell. “‘Down In The Cauldron Bog’ is a testament of our love for storytelling within a song – we fused that idea with our penchant to rock and bring you a moody piece that shows the shadier spectrum of our upcoming album. Enjoy.”

CASTLE is currently road-bound on a massive North American live takeover. The mammoth trek, which commenced on June 15th, includes a three-week run of tour dates surrounding their recent appearance at the Maryland Doom Fest followed by a month-long headlining tour beginning July 17th and running through August 20th. From there, CASTLE will take a week-long pause before taking to the streets yet again for a month’s worth of Canadian dates through September 29th.
