About the Album
The Cycles of Suffering marks Burial Oath’s first album in over five years, showcasing a revitalized sound with the addition of MOR GRISH and R to the lineup.

From blistering riffs to evocative atmospheres, the album explores pain, resilience, and the cyclical nature of human suffering.

Hailed as “sulfurous and savage” by No Clean Singing and “one of the most compelling and thought-provoking black metal albums of the year” by Cvlt Nation , the album set the stage for the band’s unrelenting rise.
Their sophomore effort, Subjugation of the Bastard Son (2018), further cemented their reputation. Angry Metal Guy praised it as “black metal at its most unencumbered, effortless and simple,” and fans eagerly awaited what would come next.
