FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ancine Unleashes 'Death Hymns II: Book of Tribulation' – A Haunting New Chapter in Gothic Americana
Release Date: February 21st, 2025

New England, USA – Ancine, the solo project of New England-based artist Michael Holgrave, is set to release its latest album, Death Hymns II: Book of Tribulation , on February 21st, 2025. This new offering cements Ancine’s place in the world of Gothic Americana, blending raw, morose sounds with the haunting beauty of neofolk. With a distinctly New England twist, this record invites listeners into a world steeped in the darkness and history of the region—one deeply rooted in the tales of H.P. Lovecraft, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Edgar Allen Poe.

The follow-up to Death Hymns I , Book of Tribulation expands upon the project's signature mix of delta blues, dissonant reverb-drenched goth rock, and western influences. The album explores themes of the macabre and the dark undercurrents of American roots music, all through the lens of Holgrave’s visceral songwriting and evocative instrumentation.

Fans of bands like Panopticon , Wovenhand , and Death in June will find a kindred spirit in Ancine’s unique sound—a raw and captivating blend of Gothic Americana with an undeniable sense of haunting beauty.
