Dan Hébert Great album, evokes the best moments of Nile. Favorite track: Sirius, Draconis, Capricornus.

Kelvin (Navajo/Diné) My first listen of Devangelic ‘Xul’ immediately brought me back to the late 90’s/early 2000’s when Nile, Deeds of Flesh, Dying Fetus lit the flame for technical, brutal death metal. Devangelic are keeping the technical BDM flame burning while adding their own take on the genre.

Underbelly Guru these brutal masters finally perfected balance in their writing. brutality is highlighted and made important by the parts that are toned down and rhythmic. fantastic album! I hope the new Putridity takes notes from these guys

channeling the malign spirits of greats like nile and immolation, these spaghetti chomping nutcases have unleashed something truly ominous with "xul". definite recommendation if the more sinister BDM styling of a band like "relics of humanity" tickle your fancy.

about

Italian Brutal Death Metal purveyors Devangelic return with their new highly anticipated 4th album, Xul, April 7 on CD, vinyl, and digital formats via Willowtip Records.

The new full-length offers the band's best material to date and reveals Devangelic performing death metal in its purest form, albeit, one with a different musical approach. The songwriting is mature and catchy without losing focus on the band's primary aim: annihilating the listener!

"Xul" is originally a Sumerian word used to denote the "Evil" and this is the main topic of the new album's concept. Basically an introspective journey in which the human being, since his appearance on Earth, is forced to face his own inner demons; evil seen as a representation of the "darkness" and the duality of man, who tries to exorcise his own negative emotions. But, as history teaches us, the negative almost always prevails in a battle against human weakness.

Album art by Nick Keller.
Drums and Vocals recorded at Mk2 Recording Studio (Ivrea, Italy).
Produced, Engineered, Mixed & Mastered at 16th Cellar Studios (Rome, Italy).
Concept, music, lyrics, samples and ethnic arrangements by Mario Di Giambattista.
Classical guitars on "Hymn Of Savage Cannibalism" and "Worship Of The Black Flames" wrote and performed by Massimiliano Cirelli.
Backing vocals on "Udug-Hul Incantation" by Davide Billia.
