Hail to all the people who attended our shows, picked up our records and bought official merchandise and have supported BELPHEGOR in any way. You are the reason why we are still able to march in worldwide, bringing death-magick devastation. We wish you all an intense hell-ride into 2019!

DRUM RECORDINGS!!

European diabolical death/ black metal kings BELPHEGOR have successfully finished the drum tracking and bass recordings for their new sinister masterpiece. This eleventh full length album is to be entitled »TOTENRITUAL« and it will present nine new tracks laced with obscure magick and full of furious brutality on September 15th, worldwide!!

Helmuth states: "It is the most brutally heavy offering we have consecrated thus far. The drums are precise and very technical with loads of breaks, fills and tempo changes. The bass is like a panzer tank. Also the rhythm guitars are complete; utterly aggressive and obscure. I'm really proud of all we have tracked so far and created for the new audial hellspawn."

Serpenth adds: "We've once again created an LP with two different tunings in the manner in which we did »PESTAPOKALYPSE VI« [Oct. 2006]. Added a lot of new elements and structures to our trademark sound and tuned the guitars down to get an even more brutal and obscure guitar tone. These are the most furiously heavy, fierce and superior nine sound collages we have ever written and recorded."

Keep an eye on out for news informing on details such as the album title, producer, studio trailer, as well as lyrical and artistic concepts in the next update.

BELPHEGOR WORKING HARD CREATING THE NEW ALBUM [APRIL 2017]

Helmuth states: "We've just finished the fourth rehearsal session. The process consisted of 13 exhausting, creative days in a row. Nine compositions took form and already sound massive.

It's important to me that we get better, tighter, raise the dynamics, and have each musician develop his skills with his instruments to bring our sound to the next level. We've always done our own thing and continue to do so.

Live ceremonies are still the essence of BELPHEGOR, making tours and marching in worldwide is our main priority after writing and releasing new musick for our loyal supporters. The new, currently untitled, album will be our most obscure and brutal one. It's the first time we've tuned our guitars to H5 and ‪#‎A6‬, which is really low, and will add a new touch to our sound. Release date will be in April 2017!!! We're forever on fire and ready for new challenges. Progress is experimentation and improvement. An honor – this horror."

BELPHEGOR CONQUERED THE PHILIPPINES AT PULP SUMMER SLAM!

Helmuth comments: "What a great warm welcome we received. Thanks to Mr. Vernon and his team for inviting BELPEHEGOR to this outstanding “PULP SUMMER SLAM OPEN AIR“ experience. To play before 20.000+ Metalheads is something special to us.
Hails to all the dedicated maniakks who banged their heads, screamed their lungs out and glorified "DIABOLICAL DEATH/ BLACK METAL".
I think we may have been one of the first blasphemous Death/ Black acts to perform over there. What a triumph it was, one of our biggest performances ever. BELPHEGOR will return to Asia!!"


Thanks to the event photographers, Mina Joriel Bataan and Roxanne Nebres.

BELPHEGOR: “CHAPTER XI“ REHEARSALS HAVE BEGUN!
BELPHEGOR began rehearsing their first sessions for their new album last Tuesday in Abtenau, Salzburg, Austria. Helmuth comments: "Magnificent nature covered in snow that has arrived in the mountains with minus -11 degrees [12ºF] here and we're freezing our asses off. Just perfect for creating brutal sound collages.
With this currently untitled album, "Chapter XI", we will try to develop and bring everything to a new level, since I have the feeling this is the strongest recording line-up we've ever had. Regards to blood brother Barth Resch for the photo shoot.

The wait is finally over, as of today the brand new masterpiece by diabolical Death/ Black Metal troop BELPHEGOR entitled »CONJURING THE DEAD« is unleashed upon the unholy soil of Europe! The international media already raves about the album, as these quotes display:

"Everything is in perfect balance, which is both exhilarating and dangerous. »CONJURING THE DEAD« is equal parts brutal, grim, and heavy. But before all else, it just sounds fucking evil. It’s that rarest of gems that can equally satiate black metal and death metal devotees."
Metal Sucks I 4.5/ 5 I Sammy O´Hagar [USA]

"Furious. Relentless. Punishing. These are the adjectives that come to mind as BELPHEGOR’s 10th album blasts through the speakers."

Revolver Mag I J. Bennett [USA]

"What a brutal, blasphemous Noblesse what a diabolically scorching in-your-face firework!"

Sonic Seducer | Markus Eck [D]

"A truly monstrous album of blasting dark melodies! The battle has begun!"

METALLIAN | Will Hien [F]

"BELPHEGOR are back! One of the incontestable guarantors in extreme metal takes a seat on satan's throne – with 100 percent blasphemous blackened death metal, technically skilled and diversified."

Metal.de | 9/10 | Andre Gabriel [D]

"The album really is an 'aural assault' on the listener. Combined with the disc's diversity and willingness to swing back and forth between atmospheric and face-smashing, this may be one of the best offerings from Austria's masters of the diabolic."

Metal Underground I 4/5 I xFiruath [USA]

"Österreichs Chef-Extremisten loten gern die Toleranzgrenzen der Metalszene aus. Zu hören gibt´s auf »CONJURING THE DEAD« den inzwischen von der Band gewohnten gnadenlosen und technisch perfekten Death/Black-Metal-Bastard, was bereits als Kaufempfehlung ausreicht. Geiles Ding!"

Rock Hard I Soundcheck #6 – 10 x Dynamit I Jan Jaedike [D]

Frontman and guitarist Helmuth Lehner comments: "Support BELPHEGOR's legacy and pick up our new offering entitled »CONJURING THE DEAD«. Push play, adjust your fukking speakers to max volume and go to hell with us."
