THE BEAST

Profanatica Unleash New Track "The Sixth Hour" from Upcoming Mini-Album Wreathed in Dead Angels

The unholy masters of blasphemous black/death metal, Profanatica, have unveiled their latest offering, "The Sixth Hour." This track serves as the first glimpse into their highly anticipated mini-album, Wreathed in Dead Angels, set for release in the first half of this year via Hells Headbangers. The album will be available in CD, 12" vinyl, and cassette tape formats. Fans can experience "The Sixth Hour" in its entirety now on Hells Headbangers' official YouTube channel.

A name synonymous with desecration and depravity, Profanatica need no introduction. Long before the term "USBM" became a trendy label, the band was already carving its own path—cold, raw, and utterly uncompromising. Since their early '90s inception, Profanatica have remained steadfast in their mission: to obliterate musical conventions and sacred ideals with their signature brand of unrelenting filth.

That mission continues with Wreathed in Dead Angels, a six-track, 22-minute onslaught that is both an affirmation of Profanatica’s legacy and a testament to their ongoing evolution. While their sound remains unmistakable, this release sees them refining their gut-wrenching guitar tone, primitive-yet-crushing percussion courtesy of founder Paul Ledney, and creeping, suffocating songwriting. The result is an album that vulgarly displays Profanatica at their most potent, proving that after more than three decades of defilement, they are only now entering their prime.

With Wreathed in Dead Angels, Profanatica reaffirm their status as true pioneers—not of "standard" black metal, but of their own distinct strain of black/death blasphemy. Prepare for yet another chapter of unholy devastation.
