Label(s): War March Records / Nekrogoat Heresy Productions / Abyssal Productions/ Aniquilación Satánica Productions
Release Year: January /2024
We know what to expect when it comes to Sardonic Witchery.
Pure black metal with an ambient totally 80s, atrocious, with an old school production, a blackened, raspy, screaming voice.
With lyrics that echo Portugal's conquests in its early days as one of the greatest kingdoms.
Lost conquests, wounds to a country's proud heritage, but these lyrics call out for ancient glory and honor.
King Demogorgon, the Lusitanian in American lands, emanates a brutality in his uncommon art, soaked in old school black thrash metal.
The new album “Barbaric Evil Power” is a battlefield where lyrics in Portuguese and English are a hymn to the ancestors,
with raging riffs and unstoppable blast beats.
Unstoppable in prioritizing the improvement of album after album, King Demogorgon has for many decades, even in other former recognized projects, always achieved the professionalism capable of reaching around the world.
Special mention should be made of the songs: “Sofrimento da Ordem do Tempo (Disciplina), sung in perfect Portuguese with Lusitanian blood, and the historic Lusitanian Wolf”.
