We are proud to announce we have signed Suffering Official !
Suffering are an Occult Black Metal band from the West Midlands blending haunting doom-laden heaviness with the raw intensity of DSBM. Formed in 2012, they’ve carved a path through the darkness, sharing stages across the UK with some of the scene’s most revered names, including Esoteric, Ghost Bath, and Møl. Their live presence is intense, ritualistic, and impossible to ignore
Frontman Sturmgeist Fornicator Insultus on signing to Apocalyptic Witchcraft:
“Suffering are extremely pleased to sign to a record label that supports, encourages and thrives on pushing the boundaries within extreme music. We have come to learn that Apocalyptic Witchcraft not only understands but has already pushed the artistic vision of Suffering, both musically and visually.
We look forward to expanding and nurturing our legacy through Apocalyptic Witchcraft whilst contributing to theirs.”
Label founder Conor Droney adds:.
“Suffering joining Apocalyptic Witchcraft feels like a perfect union, sonically and thematically. Imagine Akercocke’s R**e of the Bastard Nazarene colliding with Electric Wizard’s Dopethrone, then drenched in a layer of Eyes Wide Shut-style occult erotica. It’s dark, unflinching, and deeply atmospheric, exactly what we stand for.”
Further details on Suffering’s upcoming album “Things Seen But Always Hidden”, including pre-orders and available formats, will be revealed in the coming months. Stay tuned.
