Audio Fine Art for the Macabre

About Me

From the variance of the void between the stain of blood...and the rust upon the uncleansed blade it remains, in somnolence we rekindle our flame: unto you, the faithful, shall be delivered, the Sermon ov STEEL...Follow up to the acclaimed Sermon ov Hate ...


"Church Ov Melkarth weaves black metal misanthropy and dogma with ambient dark noise. The band has just released the first of a 4arc album release called Sermons From The Church ov Melkarth. The first sermon released through KillZone Records is called 'Hate:' a single track of propaganda 49:09 in length. Combining many old school elements and bleakness that will induce hypnotic vibes that take the listener to another consciousness."


"Church Ov Melkarth hammer gods." -- Metalwhore
" [Church ov Melkarth] produce an entirely indescribable sound, and the result requires consideration and depth." -- The Houstonian (SHSU Newspaper)
"It has the power to make you feel like you are sitting in a dark church listening to the devil himself speak..." -- Tongue of the Wolf
"This is unsettling dark-ambient that suffocates with power-drones and swirling hypnotic distortion. Can probably be likened to a group of artists as wide-ranging as MZ.412, Sunn0))), Brighter Death Now and Lurker Of Chalice, but certainly an entity all its own." -- The End Records
