DEMISER Unleashes “Hell Is Full Of Fire” Video/Single; Slave To The Scythe Nears Its August 23rd Release Via Blacklight Media/Metal Blade Records

Watch/stream DEMISER’s “Hell Is Full Of Fire” HERE.

“Hell Is Full Of Fire” is the new single from South Carolina hell bringers, DEMISER. The apocalyptic new hymn comes by way of the band’s Slave To The Scythe full-length, set for release on August 23 via Black Light Media/Metal Blade Records.

The DEMISER collective features Demiser The Demiser (occult liturgic blasphemy), Gravepisser (six-stringed Satanic fukklord), Phallomancer (abysmal rhythm of death), Defiler (dismal baritone curator), and Infestor (purveyor of percussive bile). The nine-track Slave To The Scythe is a devastatingly intense slab of work; an aural harbinger of hellish intent that sees the band blend ‘80s thrash, first-wave black metal, death metal, and a healthy dose of NWOBHM.

Latest album teaser, “Hell Is Full Of Fire,” is an epic tale of a demonic war, featuring the lines, “Call in the hordes, prepare for victory; The vermin Christ and his servants; Will soon plead as their blood spills; By the will of my steel.” The band further elaborates,  “This was one that started with a riff Phallomancer brought to practice and we all jumped in and got it fleshed out. Lyrically, we were making up dumb song titles we thought Demiser The Demiser would write and somehow he dropped this gem out of his ass. We ran with it. We still regret it.”

Slave To The Scythe was recorded in the summer of 2023 with Chase McGuckin at Seaboard Recording Studio in West Columbia, South Carolina. “We record one at a time with scratch tracks and clicks and all. We recorded with minimal AC so it was hot as fucking shit.” The band  sees Slave To The Scythe as the perfect followup to Through The Gate Eternal. “We feel like it’s a continuation of our first album and upholds the same ripping sound,” they say.

Slave To The Scythe will be available CD and digital formats as well as vinyl in “Carbureted Fire.” Find preorders at: blacklightmediarecords.com/demiser.

For the uninitiated, DEMISER formed in 2017 with the mission of “getting big enough to get a free bar tab,” they say, with no trace of irony. The five men want to drink and play brutally heavy music. They describe the DEMISER sound as, “Fast-ripping black thrash with some dirty rock ‘n’ roll influence at times. As we’ve continued writing, we’ve come more into what DEMISER‘s sound is rather than setting out to sound like a specific genre.”

The band’s influences include the likes of Venom, Bathory, Slayer, Motörhead, and Destroyer 666, plus movies like Terminator 2, Commando, and Predator (“pretty much anything Schwarzenegger really”). The overarching themes on Slave To The Scythe are essentially “hell, fire, and hellfire.” There are no ballads, no love songs – this is devilish music for devilish people that was largely written on the road.
